Lions on the Mic

Angel Salcedo came to Emerson with a lot of pressure: his mother and his sister and already graduated from the college. But the competitor in him ensured that he hit the ground running as soon as he walked through the doors. Angel is currently a sophomore at Emerson. He hosts his own college sports show, he is the executive producer on the only Spanish newcast at Emerson, and he's a great golfer. In this episode, Angel talks about the difficulties he has faced and discusses what he did to overcome them. Angel also gives advice to younger minority students and describes his dream job. All of this, and more, on Lions on the Mic.
