Episode 8: They Told Me I Couldn't. That's Why I Did.
Welcome to Knowledge for College, a weekly podcast hosted by Nicole Farmer Hurd, Ph.D., College Advising Corps founder and CEO. In Episode 8,
Dr. Hurd speaks with Louisiana community medicine physician Eric "Doc Griggs" Griggs M.D.
“I wear scrubs so the kids can see it. I didn't see very many Black doctors growing up. I didn't know I could be one until I could see it. So, I wear scrubs all the time . . . My challenge is: I want you to be better than me. So that's what motivates me is finding the next generation." –Eric "Doc Griggs" Griggs, M.D.
