2021 In Review: Mandel School in the Media

2021 in block letters with snowflakes around it

From the raging opioid epidemic to social justice and gun violence and to the trauma caused by the global pandemic, the expertise and insight of the faculty at the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at 星空传媒 were at the forefront of the stories making headlines nationally and internationally.

In what has become commonplace, our faculty members are often the first call that journalists make when trying to make sense of a news story.
