On this West Virginia Week, our news coverage was dominated by stories from West Virginia’s legislative interim meetings at the beginning of the week and the West Virginia University (WVU) Board of Governors at the end.

We also remembered where we were and how it felt on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. 

There were several other stories as well, including two more installments in our “Help Wanted” series about workforce issues in the state. 

News Director Eric Douglas is our host this week.

West Virginia Week is a web-only podcast that explores the week’s biggest news in the Mountain State. It’s produced with help from Bill Lynch, Briana Heaney, Caroline MacGregor, Chris Schultz, Curtis Tate, Emily Rice, Eric Douglas, Liz McCormick, and Randy Yohe.
