Our Professors Are Actually Cool

About Our Professors Are Actually Cool

As two college students attending SUNY New Paltz, we quickly learned there was little engaging information about the professors teaching us. We decided to create this podcast to learn a little bit ourselves, and share it with everyone who cares to listen. This podcast aims to learn about professors' lives involving teaching, work outside of New Paltz, and how they like to dance.
