We’ll talk with Elissa Freiha, founder of Womena, about the potential impact of conflict across the Middle East on women and families. Then, we’ll also learn fact from fiction on how data centers work with Energy Fellow at the University of Houston Ed Hirs. Turning to sports, Prairie View A&M head football coach Tremaine Jackson will tell us about the inaugural Chancellor’s Cup and the season ahead. And finally, UT Health Houston’s Dr. Irene Stafford will tell us how college students can stay healthy as they head back to school.
