S5E43 - Team 901 with Rhodes, LeMoyne-Owen and U of M

Memphis is the proud home to several higher education institutions, and today we get the opportunity to take a closer look at how three of them work uniquely and in collaboration with one another to create a better, brighter future for students, alumni, and the city as a whole. So no matter if you cheer for the Lynx, The Tigers, or the Magicians... this conversation is a nice reminder that we’re all on team 901. Joining us are Linda Bonnin of Rhodes College, Michele Ehrhart of The University of Memphis, and Tara Dunn-Ross of Lemoyne Owen College.
