Beyond the Headlines returns to KUNR at a new day and time: Wednesday afternoons at 2. On this edition: • Fresh off his inauguration, UNR's 16th President, Dr. Marc Johnson, discusses his goals for the university and his views on a potential new funding model for higher education in Nevada; • Two UNR professors give you a chance to try your hand at the presidential debates -- on your iPhone -- with a mobile app and web game called Prez Debate, and they've also developed a similar game for world religions. • And we'll visit the Geothermal Energy Expo, being held in Reno at the Peppermill. Geothermal Energy Association Executive Director Karl Gawell talks about the state of the industry and the potential for its continued growth here in Nevada.
