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!
