With Labor Day weekend approaching, it’s hard to avoid that start of the school year feeling. College radio stations are no exception, as they host welcome events and kick into their fall schedules. Off-campus, a number of conferences and summits are releasing details about numerous autumn gatherings.
I’m looking forward to attending several radio events in the next couple of months and am pleased that we will be doing live Radio Survivor show recordings at both the Grassroots Radio Conference and at the CBI National Student Electronic Media Convention. When schedules are finalized, we’ll be sure to share all of the pertinent details.
Here’s a quick look at some upcoming events. Read on for more college radio news.
