Press Release: 88.5 WFDD announces Radio 101, a new education program for high school students

In early 2011, WFDD launched a new community education program for high school students entitled Radio 101.

This spring, WFDD will begin airing stories produced by students participating in Radio 101.

Radio 101 teaches interested students about journalism, technology, personal reflection and storytelling -- and includes access to digital recorders, microphones, and laptops for editing audio.
