Field trip to WEHC-FM radio station at EHC

A big thank you to WEHC-FM station manager Richard Graves for sharing with our class this morning his time, knowledge and expertise. He truly gave us the "lowdown" on what it's like to work in noncommercial radio.

He also took us on a tour of the public (noncommercial) NPR radio station (WEHC-FM) that is located on EMH campus in the McClothlin Center for the Arts.

Richard is a good man to connect with if you're interesting in working professionally in radio. (He's also worked at a commercial radio station).



As I mentioned in class (and again this morning), the general manager and essentially the founder of WEHC-FM is Dr. Teresa Keller of the Mass Communications Dept. at EHC. So we have an excellent resource on radio right here in the Mass Comm Department!

Thank you all for coming this morning and for being good listeners.

Good luck with the NPR podcast homework writing assignment that's due at start of our class Monday.

Later.
