A friend on the air

December 13, 2006

in Daily updates, Music

Alison Benjamin, a media savvy friend of mine who I’ve known for more than a decade and a half, is dıscussed extensively in this article in UBC Reports. She is the president of CıTR, the student-run independent campus radio station at the University of British Columbia, and the article is about the role the station played. 2007 will be the 25th anniversary of the station. Those outside the standard transmission range can still benefit from the free web content including podcasts. A station that “helped launch Neko Case” is surely worthy of respect; I have been enjoying her latest album almost daily for months.

My thanks to Meghan Mathieson for bringing the article to my attention.

As flies to wanton boys are we to the Gods; they kill us for their sport.
