International student visa revocations, the future of abandoned boats in Morro Bay, Robin Greenfield's experiments in non-ownership, and a volunteer's tribute to the Live Oak Music Festival
Tuesday, 6 May, 2025
Professor Jared Van Ramshorst from Cal Poly's Department of Political Science talks to KCBX's Meher Ali about recent student deportations and visa revocations that have impacted international students across the country, including at Cal Poly. Then, KCBX’s Adam Solorzano reports on a state grant received by Morro Bay that will enable it to demolish abandoned boats docked at the Marina. Then, KCBX's Brian Reynolds is in conversation with Robin Greenfield, author and eco-activist, about the latter's immersive experience in non-ownership and living without money. Finally, Kathy Johnston, a journalist who volunteered at the Live Oak Music Festival last year, speaks to a “new generation” of young volunteers, many of whom grew up at Live Oak, about what makes it so special. Steve Ahlgrim edited all the audio and mixed it with music.
