Janet Chow | New Year, New Recruits

By Anastasia Philopoulos,

WUSB Radio Business Manager, Club Treasurer, and DJ Host of Mixed Nuts Radio Show

Janet Chow is a first-year student majoring in Journalism and is looking forward to becoming a part of WUSB! Here’s her take on joining the station and the beginning of her fall semester!

Q: What sparked your interest in radio?

 

A: Taking an hour and a half long trip to high school definitely got me listening to a bunch of radio in my mom’s car. I loved hearing chill stories, amazing songs, and podcasts about what I’m interested in. It always was a great start to my morning and I’d hope to bring a great start to somebody’s morning or day!

 

Q: What excites you about joining WUSB? Do you have any goals for the semester?

 

A: I’m incredibly excited about meeting people at WUSB and working with them. I’m looking forward to having a great time and balancing all of my work! I’m also excited to work with Anastasia because she’s pretty amazing. ;)

 

Q: What are some things you’re looking forward to this semester?

 

A: I’m definitely looking forward to meeting and making memories with new friends on campus and working with students in WUSB, SBU Dive Chat, and VSPINKSBU!

 

Q: And some things you’re not looking forward to? Is there any way to put it in a positive light?

 

A: Not at the moment— I enjoy all the classes I’m taking and all of the opportunities that are out here; everyone is so welcoming and lovely! Besides that, the fitness centers haven’t been open, but walking or running with my friends and using detergent as a weight are definitely good alternatives!
