This week, Youth Beat heads downtown to the home of the Columbus Children's Choir, where we'll meet some of their incredibly talented members. They'll tell us a bit about the choir, and why they love it so much; you'll even get to hear a little of their work! Then it's off to Ohio State University where we'll learn from students about some social and environmental issues that don't always make it into the spotlight. As always, it's bound to be entertaining, and enlightening. So tune in to Songs and Sociology.
