The first panel will include students, faculty, and administrative personnel involved in UCF’s response in accommodating students displaced by the hurricane. The second panel will consist of members of the media and their perspectives in covering the hurricane and its aftermath. A third panel will discuss elected officials’ perspectives on the hurricane.
