In our first podcast of the new academic year, Senior Interview Editor Enakshi Das and four of the five new GU Politics Fellows discuss their expectations for their fellowship, their views on millennial attitudes towards politics and news consumption, what they might learn from being back on campus, and the evolution of media. Unfortunately, our conversation was cut short by the Georgetown Library fire alarm! But don’t be alarmed—we’ll publish individual interviews with each fellows throughout the semester.
