LCAST is a bi-weekly podcast where Dr. Timothy Law Snyder, Vice President for Academic Affairs at Loyola College in Maryland, discusses tips for academic success in college.
CURRENT CAST
Your Professors — Revealed!
Posted on 11/17/08
In this cast, Dr. Snyder talks with professors Hung-bin Ding of Management/International Business, Jen Lowry of Psychology, Drew Schoeffield of Biology, Wendy Smith of Education, and Joe Walsh of Classics and History about...themselves! The professors reveal how they got into their careers, what they think about their work, and, yes, what they do in their spare time. You may be surprised what you have in common with Loyola's distinguished faculty!
The music, this time around, is just some basic 12-bar blues—at Dr. Snyder speeds, of course.
In LCAST 3, Dr. Snyder interviews senior Alex Hollis, president of Loyola's Student Government Association. Alex tells a bit about himself and discusses the new student unity movement, tomorrow’s presidential election, and how one can value the opinion of another. He also talks about school spirit, Greyhounds soccer, advising and safety initiatives, and how he balances SGA with the rest of his life.
Do you know Dr. Snyder makes all of the music for LCAST? Because students are in the throes of a difficult juncture in the semester, Dr. Snyder replaced his usual rock-style music in this cast with one that he hope lightens your mind and heart - sort of a cartoon-track that mimics the crazy schedules that students keep during this pre-Thanksgiving time of year.
As mid-terms approach, students face a host of new challenges. In this cast, senior Daniela Lancellotti, junior Steven Maex, sophomore Andrew Zaleski, first-year student Derek Musial, SGA President Alex Hollis and graduate student Christie Lovelady weigh in on how they refocus, recharge and balance the time-management and other demands that arise mid-semester.
For the first LCAST of the academic year, Dr. Snyder asks four students what their number-one tips are for academic success. In this cast, first-year student Derek Musial, sophomore Andrew Zaleski, junior Steven Maex and senior Daniela Lancellotti discuss what they think works best.
