WMSC Celebrates College Radio Day
said Anabella Poland, GM of WMSC FM. “A big part of my mentorship is helping students find their voice, find a new angle and to think out-of-the-box.” Students agree this approach is far more rewarding as they take their first few steps into broadcast media. Kate Braunstein, student Station Manager, remarked, “Personally, I have learned everything about news reporting for radio right here at WMSC! I learned how to find stories, write newscasts, research stories and find new angles. Despite what seems a repetitive news cycle, we produce a lot of content you don’t hear anywhere else.”
The CRD activities actually get underway tonight at 7pm with Stomp and Stroll Radio, hosted by Pat Cicchetti, followed at 10pm by Anthony Roldan and The Prog Power Station. Starting at midnight, and continuing all day Friday,WMSC’s #CRD2018 festivities include special editions of the stations’ popular shows, exclusive interviews, celebrity shout outs and the CRD Simulcast at 2pm ET, featuring your #CRD2018 Ambassadors — Joan Jett & Kenny Laguna of The Blackhearts, along with former Vice President Joe Biden. At 4pm Friday, WMSC kicks off eight straight hours of back-to-back performances by local bands and artists. The complete schedule is posted online.
