Wendell Bryant ('23), Captain - U.S. Army

An interview with IWP M.A. in Statecraft and National Security recipient Wendell Bryant (’23), currently serving as a Captain in the United States Army. Wendell has been serving in the Army for 10 years. On this podcast, he reveals his reasons for serving, for seeking out a graduate degree, and for taking all opportunities to 'pay back' and 'pay it forward.' His advice on what to (truly) expect when joining the Army is as frank and as insightful as his description of what he enjoys most about serving and being involved with the ROTC. A great conversation for our regular listeners and especially for anyone interested or currently serving in our Armed Forces who is also thinking about graduate studies. -- Learn more about IWP graduate programs: https://www.iwp.edu/academic-programs/ [https://www.iwp.edu/academic-programs/]

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
