In this episode of Telling Our Story, Leticia chats with three guests from Elizabeth City State University in North Carolina.

Guests include:

  • Farrah J. Ward, provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs
  • Dana Poole, executive director of the Office of Student Success and Retention
  • Omar Richardson, alumnus (2023, aviation science) and current graduate student
