       Tell me if you can’t make it. Everyone needs to be there. We’re announcing how you can get free VIP passes to the National and (possibly) tickets to Toad’s Place.

       It will be a MUCH shorter meeting. I promise.

We will be having a guest speaker. Kevin Connors, an alum of WJRB (old WVCW), will be talking to you about what’s so great about college radio and all you weird assholes out there. It’s going to be good, so I suggest you come. Oh, and it’s mandatory for all staff that wish to return.

Thursday August 28th at 10PM there will be a new interest meeting.

This is a meeting for anyone interested in radio in any form. Bring your questions, your favorite album, and yourselves. Anyone and everyone is invited.
