IRiSS program sets Foothill College student off on research journey studying racial injustice

Stanford IRiSS's Social Science Research Assistant Internship Program has connected hundreds of local community college students to Stanford social science departments, where they support Stanford research and learn valuable social science research skills. The Stanford News Service profiled one of the participants in this program, Atlanta Rydzik, sharing their journey from participating in the program as a Foothill College student, to becoming a sociology undergraduate at Stanford, and ultimately carrying out their own research on media bias and racial injustice.
