For black college students, seeing a professor who looks like them is a rarity. In the fourth episode of "How It's Reported," Podcast Editor Ryan Nguyen talks with arts and culture reporter Alexes Jones about her cover story on how Black professors at the University of Oregon are changing campus culture, her experience writing her first cover story for the Emerald and why the Emerald chooses to capitalize "Black."
