On this episode, we chat with some college freshmen about what their experience with higher education has been during the pandemic. Some are questioning if they are getting what they pay for.
A doctor speaks with us about the latest COVID-19 numbers and what might lie ahead as colder weather approaches.
We also learn about individuals performing outreach in Chicago to prevent violence. Those stories and more on this week's Statewide.
Our lineup:
* KWMU's Shahla Farzan gives an update on the difficulties facing nursing homes and their residents.
* Jonathon Ahl heads to a forest to see how goats are helping control invasive plants.
* Peter Medlin tells us how testing of wastewater could help fight the coronavirus.
