Eyes on Education

Eyes on Education
Podcast Description
Eyes on Education exposes the hidden dangers of surveillance tech in schools. From K-12 to college, digital tools marketed as “safety measures” are really tracking, monetizing, and controlling faculty, staff, and students—at the cost of their privacy and autonomy.
Hosts Allison Butler (UMass Amherst) and Nolan Higdon (UC-Santa Cruz) bring in experts to uncover what’s really happening and, more importantly, how to fight back. While the truth can be unsettling, this isn’t just a critique—it’s a call to action.
Tune in to learn who’s watching and how we can push back.
