Episode 29: Office Hours with Brian Bouldrey by Nine Lives Team

We set up a story booth in Main Library during reading week to give students a chance to take a study break and tell us a story. Our storytellers, Grace Shin, Zoe Port and Sam Cole, talked to us about an unenjoyable office hours session, a smelly first impression and an unlucky start to 2020.
