RESOLUTION
A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION recognizing April 24, 2013, as
High School Radio Day.
Whereas, On April 24, 2013, all high school radio stations
should celebrate their existence;
Whereas, Unfortunately there are relatively few high
school radio stations throughout our state and nation, with
only a small percentage of high school students able to work
on these radio stations;
Whereas, Terrestrial and Internet-only radio stations
around the country will be included in this celebration on
April 24;
Whereas, WNAS Radio, 88.1 FM, has been broadcasting
live from New Albany High School since May 1949, making
it the first FM high school radio station to be licensed by the
Federal Communications Commission;
Whereas, High school radio stations prepare students for
future jobs in communications, teach them management skills
and how to deal with people, give them practice in public
speaking, and help provide community services to cities and
towns; and
Whereas, Students and advisors are uniting as one on April
24, 2013, to celebrate the accomplishments of high school
radio stations throughout the country: Therefore,
SECTION 1. That the Indiana General Assembly recognizes April
24, 2013, as High School Radio Day to acknowledge the services
performed by the students and advisors involved with high school radio
stations.
SECTION 2. That the Principal Clerk of the House of
Representatives transmit a copy of this resolution to the Operations
Manager at WDSO, Chesterton High School.
