Russell. a member of the class of I 985. currently serves as the Program Director at WBI M. By obtaining this position. Russ is the highest ranking student at the station. Formerly, he served on the music staff. and was a newscaster and a DJ. Also, on campus, Russ tutored at the Writing Center and was a writer for the Community Services Office. . Interests to Russ include non-mainstream movies and dialectical arguments; while playing guitar and writing are listed as hobbies. He enjoys playing a good blues rif on the- guitar and highly detests the Smurfs. Being in the media is what Russ really enjoys. He would like a technical or public relations job writing for a record company when he graduates from BSC in the spring. His tent1re at WBIM has greatly influenced Russ' college career and projection for the future. '"WBIM has offered many opportunities to me in terms of both career and entertainment. Working in an organization of this size prepares people to approach the business world more as· a professional than as a college student. Although you cannot listen to Russ on the air, the music you listen to is a reflection of how far he has brought the station so far this semester. For the best variety of music found anywhere, listen to 91.5 WBIM.
