A note from Noah: Hey RR fans. My name is Noah Kaminsky and I'm a Cornell senior graduating this May. It's customary for a WVBR senior jok to shift for 24 hours straight sometime during study/finals week, but I had something a little different in mind for my official signing off. Instead, I will DJ every music specialty show from our weekend lineup before I ship out on May 26. I've heard that the last time someone did that was 20 years ago. Big thank you to JR for helping me realize this goal on VD and RR. And thanks to everyone who tuned in. We only rock as hard as our fans do!
