The group is joined this week by Dr. Leslie Doyle, Rockhurst's chief inclusion officer and head of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Leslie discusses Black History Month, Rockhurst's diversity initiatives, and how she found her way back to RU.
This week we welcome Alicia Douglas, director of Community Relations & Outreach and director of the Rockhurst Community Center. Alicia talks about what the Center does for the community, how students can engage in the broader community, as well as Black History Month and how "Black history is happening at this moment in time. It’s happening today."
In this week’s episode, the group welcomes special guest Angie Carr from Student Life. Angie previews all the new additions to the campus schedule this spring, including Firepit Fridays, movie nights, outdoor living rooms, and updates to the sand volleyball and basketball court.
In the first RockCast episode of 2021, the students talk about their thoughts surrounding the U.S. Capitol riots in DC, including how does the country learn from this, and how does it move forward?
We have finally hit the end of 2020 and it’s taken us three years to get here. Our final episode of the year includes: Highlights from 2020 – the year of everything, predictions for 2021, how students got through the 2020 fall semester, grievances in a bucket full of covid, an interview with VP of Student Development Matt Quick, the best things about Winter Break, and a submitted topic – thoughts on not having Spring Break in 2021.
At long last, the 2020 election is official. Mostly. And while that is the main podcast topic of Episode 4, it's not the only one. Our followers on Instagram gave us some topic ideas, too
In this episode, Vince, America, and Jerrit talk about the election and its fallout (What did we learn?), social media mayhem, choosing community over chaos (and Rockhurst initiatives to promote community post-election), and how to maintain relationships during Covid.
Jerrit and America join Bri’Yana and Vince to talk about what’s most challenging in college during 2020, Rockhurst realities vs their pre-freshman expectations, holding on to RU traditions despite the pandemic, what’s next for our seniors, and a pre-election segment where they share post-election advice for their future selves and others.
In its debut episode, The RockCast’s Bri’Yana and Vince talk about college life during a pandemic, upper-class students’ experience vs first-year students when socializing is kept to a minimum for safety reasons, new academic and social norms, social media “conversations” and today’s culture, how change is happening on campus and beyond, the importance of voting, wishing one thing back with the snap of your fingers, and predictions on what life will be like in fall 2021.
