Welcome to The Moment, a podcast for the Emory College Woodruff Scholars Program. This podcast explores the questions, issues, and challenges that shape how Scholars experience their identities in the Scholar community and their relationships with one another. The Moment is collaborative, inclusive, and multi-vocal, and it features interviews, conversations, and contributions from Scholars, Scholar Alums, and Friends of the Program. Even if we cannot share a physical space, we can always share The Moment.
Welcome to season two of The Moment, a podcast that explores the questions, issues, and challenges that shape how Emory Scholars experience their identities in the scholars community and their relationships with one another.

We’re excited to hear any and all feedback, so please don’t be shy! You can send in any comments to ec.scholarsfellows@emory.edu or DM us on Instagram @EmoryScholars.
Correction: Olivia misspoke at the beginning of the episode. Dr. Margaux Cowden is the Director of the Emory College (not University) Woodruff Scholars Program. Since we reported on this episode, Dr. Cowden has stepped down from her role and will be leaving at the end of 2021. We’ll miss you, Margaux, and wish you the best!
