Three years ago, NPR announced its College Podcast Challenge.

The first time around, it gave young people a voice during the pandemic, reaching NPR’s audience and beyond.

Now, the contest is back - taking entries with a $5,000 grand prize scholarship, and more training materials and support than ever.

Steve Drummond and Janet Woojeong Lee are with NPR’s education team.
