Description:
AM: Radio Drama
Create and produce your own radio drama! On-site in the new WSUM radio studio, you’ll experience the world of radio, and how to talk on-air and work a sound board. You will also learn about radio drama, then write, perform, and edit your own radio teleplay, which will air on WSUM!
PM: Who Would Have 'Thunk': Philosophy
Explore the exciting world of philosophy through discussions, games, debates, and skits. We will ask difficult questions and struggle to find our own answers. Though questions will likely remain unanswered, we will learn why the questions themselves are important, and will have engaged in a constructive, respectful, intellectual enterprise . . . while having a great time!
