HAWK Radio held its first meeting of the semester last week, jump starting the fall semester.

Hilbert’s online  media outlet and radio station gathered in Fran Hall, where 15 members discussed potential shows, events, and programming ideas and welcomed several new members.

Don Vincent, the HAWK Radio faculty advisor, said he is excited about the line up for the upcoming semester.

“It’s to give students another outlet to be creative and to express themselves”, Vincent said when asked what the goal of Hawk Radio was. “Not everyone that is involved is interested in broadcasting, but it certainly gives them a taste of what broadcasting is like”.

The station also offers experience in marketing and graphic design as well as opportunities to develop programs. 

Jonathon Heck, a junior majoring in cyber security, is new to the radio station. He is planning to host a late-night show discussing “life, space, and time” and “even some music and sports with a twist each week”.

Heck will be hosting his show with junior Carl Zarcone hopefully Friday nights between 9 and 10PM.

This school year is shaping up to be a busy one for HAWK Radio, with “Eternity Matters” with Sonja on Mondays at 2:00PM, news and sports blasts with Andrew on Tuesdays at 11:00AM, “Hawk Rock Block” with E-Dawg on Thursdays at noon, and much more.

HAWK Radio is always looking for new members to join. Those interested can contact Don Vincent at dvincent@hilbert.edu or contact Hawk Radio directly at hawkradio@hilbert.edu.
