A Letter from Lee Irving, WKSU Community Advisory Council member and Chair of the Council's Executive Committee

Welcome to the WKSU Community Advisory Council (CAC) web page. As a group, the CAC strongly believes that WKSU is an important positive factor in the quality of life in Northeast Ohio and a great ambassador for Kent State University. We also believe it is one of the best public radio stations in the country. The CAC is committed to keeping it that way.

To that end:

The listings that follow show who we are, our "day jobs" and our tenures as WKSU CAC members. We are proud to serve as liaisons from our home and work communities to the station, and to advocate for WKSU in those communities. If you would like to contact any or all of us about WKSU, feel free to do so and please direct your communication to us in care of the station. We would like to hear from you!
