What We Learned

"I played independent music and found out about different kinds of music... I also learned to keep an open mind about music..." -Lacey Crane

"I learned to be more accepting of different types of music." -Kersey Miller

"I learned how to run a radio station." -Tiana Higgins

"I learned how to work on Garage Band, go on air and play songs... how to make a legal ID and PSA." -Olivia Morales

"In UB Broadcasting I learned a lot of things and gained a lot of skills for the future. I learned how to run the radio station (KUOI), how to fill time in and remain calm if I make a mistake. I learned how to edit audio on Garage Band, and make legal IDs. I learned how to use recording equipments and where to point a microphone while recording." -Mikala Briceno
