Podcasts by Let Me Tell You a Story (WSU 2019)
The Office of International Programs (OIP) at Wayne State University hosted 93 Iraqi students in July 2019 as part of the Iraq Young Leaders Exchange Program (IYLEP) for Undergraduates, a four-week summer exchange sponsored and funded by the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad and implemented by World Learning.
While at Wayne State, 21 students took an introductory course in public speaking and storytelling taught by Dr. Colleen Ezzeddine. As part of this course, each student chose one personal story to share as an episode in a podcast called “Let Me Tell You a Story.”
