Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Jen Golbeck
Vice Adm. Walter E. “Ted” Carter Jr. aboard U.S. Naval War College in Newport, R.I. during a change of command ceremony in 2013.
The U.S. Naval Academy prepares young men and women for service in the United States Navy or Marine Corps as commissioned officers. College-aged students who get into the service academy receive a tuition free education, in exchange for a commitment to service. We talk with the current USNA Superintendent about his role on campus and how the Academy differs from – and is similar to – civilian higher learning institutions.
Guests
