On March 11, 2020 Utah State University cancelled events, in response to Covid-19. In this clip Wyatt Traughber explains the purpose of "Instead."


Hi, my name is Wyatt. I work for the Office of Research at Utah State University. I'm normally behind the scenes. I help experts build presentations which bring their audiences aboard for the ride. This is being recorded on March 11th, 2020, the day the World Health Organization declared covid-19 a pandemic. My team likes helping people share research and not viruses. So we are cool with the university canceling our events. So as catering orders were canceled, I started scheduling interviews with busy USU researchers who suddenly had openings in their schedule. So whether you're bummed or relieved about what the coronavirus has done to your plans, this is something you can listen to instead. I'm gonna go wash my hands and try not to touch my face.
