🎸 Meet Mary Elliott, an audio production and guitar student putting both fields to work at Shocker Studios!

As a recording studio technician, Mary helps maintain the studios, troubleshoots equipment and assists with classes. She’s also getting a firsthand look at what it takes to run a professional recording space.

“As both an audio and music student, this opportunity is especially cool for me to be able to take my skills in both fields and use them in a way that helps others,” Mary said.

Through her applied learning experiences, Wichita State graduate Briana Rodriguez used her Spanish-language skills to help families access important services and resources in the Wichita community.

With support from the Applied Learning Fund, Briana served as a Spanish interpreter at Kansas Children’s Service League and Our Daily Bread Food Pantry. Now a student at the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Dentistry, she plans to use those skills to better serve Spanish-speaking patients in her future dental practice.
