Dean of Students Chandana Mozumdar interviewed for NPR Radio

Dr. Chandana Mozumdar, Dean of Students and Upper School Social Studies teacher, was interviewed by WCPN in a series of interviews the station aired about what has changed since September 11, 2001.

The promo for her 8 1/2 minute interview reads:

As Dean of Students at Lakeridge Academy, Chandana Mozumdar had her hands full September 11th, ministering to hundreds of shocked and frightened teens. As a social studies teacher, she daily faces a set of entirely new challenges as she guides students through an altered paradigm of world events. Speaking with 90.3's April Baer, she remembers what was happening last year at this time, and the student who's reaction to the attacks brought her up short.

Repeating a tradition that began last September, Lakeridge Academy will hold a diversity forum October 2nd, including representatives from a variety of religious and cultural traditions, to help students deal with the complicated feelings inspired by the attacks.
