They speak to the department chair Dr. Glen McClish about overseeing the department during the pandemic and the changes rhetoric has seen over the years. They also speak with the department's newest assistant professor Dr. Consuelo Salas, recent alumni Ruben "Ruby" Mendoza and Clara Cushing, staff member Claudia Gracio, graduate student Catherine Hood, and undergraduate student Rebecca Cudal.
