Finding Your Place: Going Back Home (Episode 8)

Welcome to the Finding Your Place podcast - a series about the college experience made by college students for college students. College is an entirely new way of life, and that can mean that home can take on a different meaning after you've started college. In the eighth episode, our FYP producers take their recorders home, giving us a few of the sights and sounds of home. But the focus of the episode is a story told by Faculty Producer Dave Engen. Engen reflects on the tensions of being caught between two worlds in college: the world of the professional middle class that college was preparing him to join and the working-class community he was raised in.
