Back To School During A Global Pandemic

The Coronavirus Pandemic has impacted the return to school for the second year in a row. On this week’s Disrupted, we celebrate this anniversary with a back to school special.

We hear from students about their hopes and fears for the coming fall semester. We’ll speak with a professor about the similarity between Hurricanes and the pandemic. And an ESPN writer on the changing economic landscape of college sports.

• Cassandra R. Davis - Research Associate Professor of Public Policy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
• Mechelle Voepel - Women's Basketball and College Sports Writer for ESPN and ESPNW.

Disrupted is produced by James Szkobel-Wolff, Zshekinah Collier, and Catie Talarski.
