The stereotypical sorority experience is well-known, negative, and (unsurprisingly) not true of every chapter. Most people think they know what Greek life - but what do the insiders say?

This week, Dr. Ross and student producer Ashley Worley explore Greek life within UT Tyler's Alpha Chi Omega chapter. Joining the discussion are Alpha Chi's alumni advisor Michelle Gonzalez and chapter president Elizabeth Nixon to share the impact of sisterhood on their college journeys. Together, they dive into their experiences with sorority culture, community outreach, and career prep opportunities. For students curious about what Greek life is really like, the stories may not be what you expect.

As one of the hard sciences, Biology tends to be more concrete in our imaginations. White lab coats. Microscopes. The mitochondria (it's the powerhouse of the cell). But what about snake-trapping? Fishing? Counting frog calls?

The field is a lot wider than we might think.

This week, Dr. Ross and student producer Ashley Worley continue their series highlighting inside stories and college prep practicalities from UT Tyler's Biology department. Department chair Dr. Lance Williams and Biology student MJ Baker join the discussion to share what's really happening in biology and chemistry classes, from fieldwork to lab reports. If you're choosing your degree, preparing for college life, or just curious about other experiences in higher ed, this series is for you.
