In this multi-media lecture built on Prof B’s forthcoming graphic memoir Going Remote: A Teacher’s Journey (The Censored Press/Seven Stories Press), travel to pre-COVID DVC, teleport to online Cloud College, and return to the present moment when the fate of Community College itself hangs in the balance.
