DJ Orientation and training will be held on Saturday September, 22 in the Women's Awareness Center (WAC). The orientation is required for anyone who wants to DJ for the 2007-2008 school year. This year's training will be split in three parts. The first part will be about a 20 minute radio production seminar covering the basic physics of sound and sound design. The second part is about a 10 minute seminar covering the basics of station ethics and the other functions of the radio station outside of your show. The third is a hands on training experience where we take you into the studio and show you how everything works. Two sessions will be held beginning at 1:00 and 1:50, meet in the WAC. We will train in groups of 20 and you can attend either session. If there are any questions, please contact the General Managers at kgsm-general-manager@gustavus.edu.
