During this period, he diversified revenue streams, reduced expenses, increased digital content, and expanded the sales footprint of the network. He also worked to enhance Howard student engagement across the six radio stations in the Howard radio portfolio.
“When thinking about who best to be named General Manager of WHUR radio, there was no question that it should be Sean Plater,” says Debbi Jarvis, Howard University SVP of Corporate Relations. “He’s that home-grown talent who not only understands the industry but truly understands the needs of the station, the University, and the community.”
