Spotlight on Ravneet Singh!


Salutations beautiful people! Today we're shining a spotlight on one of WNJR's own, Mr. Ravneet Singh or as some of you may know him as: The Ravanator, which is his alter ego when hosting his show Video Game Music at 9:00pm on Thursdays. Rav is WNJR's Technology Director among other things.  He does an amazing job of making sure we don't go crazy when any of us are faced with technological issues. You may also recognize Rav because he actually attends DubJay! Big surprise everyone! Rav is a sophomore and is majoring in Computer Science. So whenever you see him on campus don't be afraid to say hello!

Amina's Room with a View

Hello everybody, I hope you're having a great Wednesday. I just wanted to let you guys know that next Saturday, October 3rd, will be the first airing of Amina's Room with a View. For all those who may not remember or are new audience members, my show has two segments: the first segment is a review of a book and the second segment is a review of a movie of my choice, that I have read and seen.  But something new I'm trying this year is to bring in guests to discuss with me their likes and dislikes of certain movies and books. I will also try to start playing several songs from the soundtrack of the movie being presented that day. So please tune in on Saturdays at 9 starting October 3 to listen in. Thank you guys and have a great day!
