Extended Office Hours with Dr. Regina Hamilton

Hosted by Dr. Regina Hamilton of UK's Department of English and African American and Africana Studies program, Extended Office Hours invites faculty into the studio to discuss their paths to teaching. Sometimes the stories are personal, sometimes they're critical, but they're always important. In this first season of the show, episodes focus on what drew each faculty member to where they are today.
