    Episode 28: Experiential Learning Abroad: Studying Ukraine and Youth Political Engagement
    In this special episode, Katie talks with two prominent UT professors, Drs. Mary Neuburger and Oksana Lutsyshyna, and former students of theirs who together undertook a phenomenal investigative project in spring 2019 to examine and closely follow Ukrainian youth political engagement during the presidential election in which Volodymyr Zelensky ultimately won, beating incumbent Petro Poroshenko. The team discusses the fascinating process by which they began their research, connected with Ukrainian students via Skype (not Zoom!), and eventually traveled to Ukraine itself. The lasting relationships and connections they made during that memorable month abroad in early summer 2019 inform their thinking and processing of the War in Ukraine today. Thank you for joining us on The Other Side of Campus! ABOUT THE GUESTS Dr. Mary C.

    Episode 27: "There's Always a Crisis": Global Conflicts in the Classroom with Lorinc Redei and Michael Mosser
    On this episode, Stephanie and Katie talk with two excellent albeit very different teachers and European affairs experts, Lorinc Redei and Michael Mosser, on how they handle global conflicts, such as Putin's war in Ukraine, in the classroom. When is it important to provide space for discussion about major world events in a class setting? How should earth-shattering news be handled if it has nothing to do with the course syllabus or is in no way connected to the subject being studied? Mosser and Redei attempt to tackle such questions based on their own lived experiences. Thanks for joining us on the Other Side of Campus.

    Episode 26: Teaching Research Through Story: Immigration, Deportation, and Migrant Health with Miguel Pinedo

    Episode 26: Teaching Research Through Story: Immigration, Deportation, and Migrant Health with Miguel Pinedo
    On this episode, Dixie and Stephanie talk with Dr. Miguel Pinedo from the College of Education. He focuses on studying the health implications of immigration policies on migrants residing on both sides of the US-Mexico border. Although a research-trained professor, in the classroom, Dr. Pinedo expounds on how he has developed practices to humanize his research to help students viscerally connect the data and findings to real life experiences. Thanks for joining us on The Other Side of Campus! ABOUT THE GUEST https://apps.jsg.utexas.edu/profiles/files/photos/miguel_pinedo_banuelos_3747_thumb.jpg Miguel Pinedo is an Assistant Professor in Department of Kinesiology and Health Education at The University of Texas at Austin. He has an invested interest in better understanding the intersection between migration and health. Though migrant health has become an important facet of health research, migration has rarely been examined as a social determinant of health. Pinedo's work addresses this critical area by focusing on how different migration experiences contribute to health disparities, particularly among Latino populations. Specifically, his work investigates how social- and structural-level factors associated with migration to the US; voluntary and forced migration (e.g., deportation); domestic migration within Mexico; and migration to high-risk environments (e.g., settings with increased availability of alcohol and drugs) relate to the epidemiology of substance abuse, HIV risk, and related harms. A large proportion of his work has focused on Mexican migrants residing on both sides of the US-Mexico border, a high-risk region for alcohol and drug abuse and HIV. Overall, his research underscores the importance of migration-related factors in shaping health behaviors, risk practices, and health outcomes. Prior to joining UT, Pinedo received his PhD in Global Health from the UC San Diego and completed his postdoctoral training at UC Berkeley. He also previously earned his Master in Public Health from UC Berkeley. PRODUCER'S NOTE: This episode was recorded on November 12th, 2021 via Zoom.
