How To
The Scholarship Podcast: Higher Education Navigation for Minoritized people is a placewhere we talk about the finances of navigating the academy for minoritized people. We’ll probably focus on graduate student funding and avoiding student loan debt, but we’ll also talk about what to do when you get to the ivory tower, navigating graduate student life, and life after grad school. I’m your host, Nicollette Mitchell. Full time mom, full time graduate student, former administrator (for now), and full time cheerleader for minoritized people who want to navigate the academy with financial finesse.
