This was a big news week at Rockhurst with the naming of the University’s 15th president (and first female and lay president), Dr. Sandra Cassady. We give our reaction to the announcement, as well as dive into the global news of the week – Russia and Ukraine. For perhaps the first time ever, we have inside access to the war through social media – and the images are heartbreaking.

Finally, we review Black History Month at Rockhurst and provide updates on upcoming events.

Cast: Bri’Yana M., Damian H., Sydney T., Daniel A.
