A friend on the air

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.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.
