Welcome to Media in the Mix, the only podcast produced and hosted by the School of Communication at American University. Join us as we create a safe space to explore topics and communication at the intersection of social justice, tech, innovation & pop culture.

This week's episode of Media in the Mix is special for a number of reasons! First, we are celebrating SOC's 30th Anniversary with two very distinguished AUSOC guests, Hurst Senior Professorial Lecturer, Pallavi Kumar and professor and Interim Dean Leena Jayaswal. Second, this entire podcast episode you’re hearing and watching today comes to you care of SOC students participating in our first ever Media in the Mix experiential learning demo! A team of six students worked together in our Media Production Center to produce the episode from lights to set design to sound to a 3-camera set-up. So, sit back, enjoy their hard work and some throwback features of Leena and Pallavi when they were students here!

A Special Shoutout to the SOC Students who made this happen: - Marley Joseph

- Susan DeFord

- Bekah Jarnagin
