Olivia Reingold ’17

Associate Professor of History Dr. Nick Maher was featured on Georgia Public Broadcasting/NPR’s On Second Thought on June 23. The segment was produced by Oglethorpe student Olivia Reingold ’17, an American Studies major, who is interning at GPB this summer.

As part of her internship, Olivia pitched the idea to Celeste Headlee, host of On Second Thought, and was responsible for producing the segment and securing Dr. Maher as an expert contributor. In the segment “Break It Down,” Dr. Maher helped to “break down” the term Third World, the complicated origins of the phrase, and what we really mean when we say it.
