Amherst &amp; Abroad is here to question, discuss, and inform. Created by student reporters at The Massachusetts Daily Collegian in partnership with Amherst Media, and born from a curiosity for both local and international news, weekly episodes will feature a spectrum of styles and topics with an emphasis on politics and social justice. Amherst &amp; Abroad strives to bring unheard voices to life and is inspired by the courageous life of UMass alumnus and journalist, James Foley.
