Description

Sami and Kaitlin kick things off with a conversation about the lifting of various mask mandates around the country, all in the name of maintaining public trust. Is this a policy decision made with health data in mind, or just political posturing for the sake of appeasing voters? They also dig into a new federal lawsuit against Harvard University from three female graduate students for various incidents of sexual harassment. How is it possible for this type of behavior to happen unchecked at the university for so long? Then they reflect on the state of academia throughout the country and how these traditional power structures enable systemic abusers.
