Here's the latest from IC Radio: * Committee Elections: vote by filling in the form in this email * IC Radio lunches * Be a guest on an established show to complement your studio training Manifestos Head of Promotions - Shivani Dave I would like the role of head of promotions to really springboard the engagement with IC Radio across campus.
From having prize giveaways to increase social media engagement to having promotional videos and even stash worn around campus so people really know who we are and boost brand awareness. We have a strong history of music shows at the station but I want to promote the ability to host speech shows for specific societies to raise issues people in their communities face, for example the feminist society or LGBT community. To do this I will work closely with other Union societies and the Head of Programming. Mostly I just want to help to make IC Radio the best it can be by boosting engagement with listeners and presenters.
________________________________ IT Manager - John Oliver “The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams” – Oprah Winfrey I am running for the position of IT Manager for ICRadio because I feel I have a fairly good understanding of the importance and technical requirements of the IT systems of a small online radio station, as well as the knowledge to underpin good IT practice. I hope that my current and ongoing experience as the DramSoc Systems Administrator would be helpful in this regard, as I have experience with Windows and UNIX-based systems, as well as general technical knowledge as a result of the practical work undertaken with DramSoc. Thank you, members of ICRadio, for considering me for the role, and I look forward to being able to ensure a good continuity of service for the society in these turbulent times. ________________________________ IT Manager - Fraser May Although I have no formal IT experience, I have worked on many personal projects and helped out friends and family with a number of IT related issues. For example setting up dedicated servers for multiplayer games, and designing/building websites to teach myself about different programming languages and frameworks. I feel this has given me a sufficient breadth of knowledge to be able maintain a system based on lots of varied and interconnected parts, such as IC Radio's. Cast your vote now!
