By mid-March, everything had changed. Many of the WOSU staff were sent home to shelter in place as COVID-19 became more serious. We are grateful for the essential workers – reporters, on-air hosts, engineers, programmers and business office staff – who remained in the Fawcett Center, following strict safety protocols, to keep our radio and television stations on the air. As Central Ohio shut down, WOSU quickly cranked up new initiatives to meet the needs of our community.
