Daniel Huff on education policy and student debts in America, student body organisations and Dark Matter

Hi Everyone, This is Episode 10 of The Knowmads Podcast.Political discussions and associated ideologies almost always resolve in thinking about national leaders and the large scale effects of policies that finally lead to geo politics. The conversations often lack the microscopic details and the penetrative effects of policies at the lowest local level, where ‘in principle’ it actually matters. Studies suggest that such discussions ,amongst young students, who are these future leaders, are completely missing in recent times. The drive and necessity of social acceptance and the high sensitivity surrounding these topics renders the young mind extremely hesitant and sometimes completely helpless. In todays episode we aim to break this notion apart. Our guest today is a 3rd year physics graduate student at the University of Houston. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in physics and astronomy from Emory University. His research is in experimental particle physics he specializes in designing and building equipment and systems for highly sensitive particle detectors. Daniel shares with us his true opinions about recent American Educational Policies and how that affects lives of graduate students and since it’s not possible to not talk about physics on The Knowmads Podcast, we talk about the current state of Dark Matter detection in the community.xoxo The KnowmadsYou can find Daniel at: https://www.instagram.com/here_comes_duffEmail: [email protected] can find The KnowmadsPrachi Garella: Website: https://www.prachigarella.comLintree: https://linktr.ee/prachigarellaBhavay: Website: https://www.bhavaytyagi.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bhavaystyagi/To reach us you can email us at: [email protected]
