Campus’N’Culture Podcast

This debut episode of the Campus N Culture Podcast features a generation of ACS Presidents – Tani Akinmoladun, Blessings Mwanza, and Victor Ofodile, who led Imperial’s African Caribbean Society in 2023/24, 2024/25, and 2025/26, respectively. Baba Odumeru, the current Vice President of Events,  explores their journeys through Medicine, Mathematics, and student life at Imperial College London. They reflect on their paths to Imperial, from GCSEs to university, discussing challenges, misconceptions, and advice for future students. They also open up about their favourite memories, the realities of campus life, and what it’s really like balancing intense studies with leading a society, being creative, and pursuing personal passions.

The conversation deepens as they explore the theme of Black History Month: “Standing Firm in Power and Pride.” Everyone shares what the month means to them, their thoughts on representation, and reflections on today’s cultural climate. Wrapping up with trending topics, quick-fire cultural debates, and audience questions, the episode offers an authentic, entertaining, and empowering look into the lives of Black students thriving and leading within one of the UK’s top universities.

If you want to hear more, join us each month for real conversations with Black students, professors, and industry pros about university life, STEM, and student culture.
