Barely Making It: Navigating 2020 As a Broke College Student

07.21.20

Erianna Jiles takes us through what it’s like to be a college student trying to make it, and how the 2020 election could affect her and other first-generation students in the same situation.

Erianna Jiles is part of a collaboration between YR Media and WNYC’s Radio Rookies called 18-to-29 Now: Young America Speaks Up. It’s an election project that brings together young adults (18-to-29) from around the country to document their lives and what’s at stake for them in 2020.
