Sarah B Licht and Lila Podgainy Oral History Interview

Title
Sarah B Licht and Lila Podgainy Oral History Interview
Description
In this group interview, two Grinnell University students talk about their involvement with the Jewish student group Charerim: Sarah is the group's social chair and Lila is the cultural chair. They give examples about when and how Covid-19 disrupted their studies, and also how they grew because of the various adaptations they had to make within their family, their college friendships, study patterns, and continuing Chaverim connections. Lila talked about her job with NextGen in calling Iowans for a voter registration effort, going to protests for racial justice in New York City. Sarah was with family near the northeastern Florida coast and they reconnected with an area synagogue.
