Ames City Council member, Bronwyn Beatty-Hansen, gave us City Council 101, a quick course in how the Council works and how residents can have input. Host, Gale Seiler, also spoke with Rose Green, from Parents for Great Iowa Schools, about education-related bills in the current legislative session and how they might impact schools in Iowa. In the last segment, Lucia Suarez, an Associate Professor in the Department of World Languages and Cultures at ISU, spoke about her vision for the US Latino/a Studies Program which she directs, as well as about her research and writing.
