WGTC Radio
WGTC is a unique opportunity for EMCC to serve the community while serving as an in-house
public broadcasting system for EMCC news and events. Since its first broadcast in
July 2015, 91视频鈥檚 radio station on the Golden Triangle
campus has grown its listenership through innovative content that includes original
live radio drama. It produces the nation's only radio daytime drama, Hope for Tomorrow in which faculty members and students perform. The 25-minute show is performed live
at 8:30 on Tuesday mornings and played back at various times.
- The station, which is commercial free, includes Mainstream Top 40, which is popular
with students and features all the latest artists.
- Students in JOU-1313 learn to summarize and condense both local and national news,
write it according to AP style, then deliver the news on the air at five minutes before
the hour. Our journalism students get experience in writing and delivering news. Vaughan
encourages his students to save their newscasts for future demos in applying for radio
or TV news jobs. They learn everything from the immediacy of deadlines to how to properly
enunciate while speaking on-air.
- Don Rodney Radio Vaughan hosts The Seventies in the Seven O'clock Hour every Monday
through Thursday morning right after the National Anthem. Don identifies every song
he plays. Public speaking students choose songs they hear him play and present their
interpretations to the class.
- Sports Talk with Eric Ford, Friday mornings at 10:00 (live) and played back at 5 that
day.
- EMCC Radio can be heard at 92.7 FM.
