On March 31, he released <\/span><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/0e3IlBWOLwaxk3lRXEb0gc?si=63a3f7ec536e4b6e\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Non-Traditional Scholar Podcast<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on Spotify to help students navigate the educational system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first episode discusses how non-traditional students can traverse the educational landscape by obtaining help from college advisors, tutors and librarians.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To date, the podcast has created eight more episodes. The episodes are released weekly. Topics range from discussions about overcoming educational obstacles to how students can benefit from resources at their institution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMy podcast is another opportunity to see how you can connect to somebody, even though at first glance, you might think that they have no commonality with you whatsoever,\u201d said Nemeroff, who\u2019s been teaching at Hialeah Campus since 2015.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nemeroff\u2019s wife, Lesley Gonzalez, came up with the idea to create the podcast after she attended one of his Reroute, Return and Redemption events at Hialeah Campus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt hit me like a ton of bricks,\u201d said Gonzalez, who was a hairdresser for nine years before returning to college to earn an associate\u2019s degree in psychology from Hialeah Campus last year. \u201cEvery time I went to the event it was very impactful but I always felt I wanted more.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The podcast is a TEDx Talk-styled event in which guest speakers discuss how they overcame challenges such as raising children, dealing with unsupportive parents and being undocumented.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To kick-start the series, Nemeroff reserved a space at Learning Resources at Hialeah Campus. He utilizes lapel microphones and his own phone to do audio recordings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nemeroff\u2019s guests are people whose educational paths weren\u2019t a smooth transition from high school to college. The only exceptions were episodes two and five, where Nemeroff spoke about his path to becoming a college professor while raising his two children.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Episodes last 45 to 60 minutes and guests talk candidly about the trials and tribulations they have faced. A recent episode featured Medical Campus Student Government Association President <\/span><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/mdcthereporter.com\/staging\/8357\/once-undocumented-he-is-now-a-champion-for-student-engagement\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arturo Ortiz<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, who at the time served in the same capacity at Hialeah Campus. He discussed his struggle as an undocumented college student.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think it has shined a light and given a voice, again, to the non-traditional route,\u201d Ortiz said. \u201cIt kind of helps highlight the fact that the college journey is not a one size fits all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other people featured in the podcast include Gloria Rodriguez\u2014a pizza restaurant owner in Miami Lakes who is studying to become a teacher at Hialeah Campus\u2014and Kelly Hernandez, a writing coach at Medical Campus who went from working in a factory to attending Georgetown University.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After Nemeroff conducts the interviews, he polishes the voice recordings through Adobe\u2019s Enhance Speech software. Then, he uses Spotify\u2019s podcast creator software to add music to the audio before sending the final product to the guests for final approval.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nemeroff is applying for a grant from the National Endowment of the Humanities to purchase new microphones, soundproofing walls, video equipment and a green screen to turn the podcast into a video series.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI hope this can reach as many people as possible,\u201d Nemeroff said. \u201cIt can serve as an initiative to connect people that feel like college passed them by and inspire them to realize they still have a chance.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i>Click<a href=\"https:\/\/mdcthereporter.us19.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=4fc6146412415baee32007fd7&amp;id=b5cd3712dc\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"> here<\/span><\/a> to subscribe to our bi-weekly newsletter, The Hammerhead.
