The End
Hello and farewell, my community.This is the last episode of Season 5 and of the show, Instructional Ecology (for now). Your host considers the arc of the show, the many stories we've heard, and considers the kind of perspective an ending can bring.We touch on learning, failure, growth, uncertainty and new beginnings. I tell a story of how the podcast was part of my recovery and learning to live with vocal paralysis. I consider the wealth of teaching I've been privileged to witness and hear about at the college. Join us for a short episode to say goodbye to the project, for now. More soon, my community. I hope we meet each other again and again.

The End of the Beginning
We offer a bookend to the first epsiode of the season. We began with Hameen Shabazz the day he was offered a new position at the college: Student Success Coach. He was joined by three other hires to form the first SSC team the college has had. I talk with Hameen, Sierra Oliphant, Grace Alger and Kristofer McCoy about their beginnings, how they grew in their roles and as a team. And we talk about what it means to no longer be a beginner. What is it like to be at the end of the beginning? What's next? Listen to hear about all of these questions and answers, to hear some stories of joy and disappointment and the many ways that "student success" can look.

Reaching Out, Reaching Back
As we near the end of this season and our show, we talk with another newer member of our teaching and learning community: Dr. Lamar White. Dr. White joined us earlier this year as the Vice President of Student Affairs. He has a vision that depends on great interest in and respect for students beginning their college journey with us. We talk about his beginnings as a first-generation college student, making the leap of faith from Compton to Atlanta. We talk about his career path in higher education. And we uncover an incredible treasure trove of a lifetime of active and benevolent mentors..Join us to set one foot in a world where every time a hand reaches out for help, another hand is there to catch and hold and help.
