[Sarah Lazare]

hi all, here is a general p.s.a. i wrote to promote involvement in radio.  i 
pulled most of it from the radio group website.  does this look ok?  would 
you like me to send it out to a bunch of people?

on the website, our meeting time is wrong - it says 5:30 on tuesdays instead 
of noon.  i don't know how to fix this.

Do you have something to say?  Well, say it to your community… over the 
airwaves!  The UCIMC Radio Group warmly welcomes folks who are interested in 
producing, editing, and contributing to radio media.

UC IMCN is one of many “working groups” at the IMC. Volunteers produce a 
half-hour local public affairs program broadcast Mondays at 5:30 PM on WEFT 
90.1 FM. The collective meets every Tuesday at Noon at the IMC at 218 W. 
Main St. in downtown Urbana. The collective also discusses shows and issues 
on its listserv: radio (at) ucimc.org.

We are always looking for new members and fresh perspectives. No experience 
is required to participate. All ages welcome. IMCRN provides training as 
needed and as available. To get involved:
show up to our meetings: Tuesdays at noon at the IMC - 218 W. Main Street in 
downtown Urbana
You do not have to be a member of the IMC to contribute, although regular 
participants are encouraged to become a member ($50 annual membership, $25 
for low income).

There are lots of ways to participate in the collective. Most of these are
