We have close to 450,000 living alumni, over 16,000 of which graduated with a History degree. One of those is a fellow History graduate and good friend Julie Rogers, who I had the pleasure of speaking with for this episode of Badgering Around. Julie works in Washington DC and serves as the Historian for NPR (National Public Radio), which is headquartered in DC. I asked Julie about her journey to NPR, working and living in DC, and about the current importance of preserving history and recording facts. We also chatted about the Wisconsin Idea and how sometimes you have to take a look back, in order to have a full, clear vision for what lies ahead. On this episode, of Badgering Around.
