Former Barometer Editor-In-Chief Lauren Sluss joins me to talk about her work with elementary school students as part of Americorps. She shares her research on inequalities and barriers in education, how they've been magnified by the COVID pandemic, and the support these students need. We also go into her time overseeing impactful coverage with the Barometer, how those skills have translated to her post-college life, and the struggles of getting kids to run in straight lines.
