The final installment we are syndicating from our sister podcast, Escape Velocity, focuses on the Black student experience at USC Viterbi. The episode features Cheyenne Gaima, who is pursuing a BS in Computer Science and Business Administration and is the President of USC's Chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers, and Emmanuel Johnson who is pursuing a PhD in Computer Science and is a Fulbright Scholar. Thank you so much to Cheyenne and Emmanuel for sharing their stories, and to the entire Escape Velocity team for producing this series of podcasts!
