Students with Penn’s Political Empathy Lab traveled across the state last summer and talked with people at parks, libraries and county fairs. The goal was to listen to Pennsylvanians as they discussed the issues in the 2024 campaign. Lab director Lia Howard says the students emphasized using critical listening skills to understand the voters better. Howard says the students recorded 45 hours of audio during their sessions, producing a podcast series and presenting what they learned on and off campus. Another statewide tour is scheduled for this spring, and Howard says she will eventually publish the students’ findings.
