Looking for opinion article inspiration online I came across the above prompt, thanks to the folks at wowessays.com. It isn\u2019t the most attractive prompt, but I couldn\u2019t move on from the idea of writing for it in some way. I couldn\u2019t put my finger on why though. Soon I realized it was because I had been sitting in the Colket Center all night doing homework\u2026and listening to WRKE broadcast over the speakers there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Roanoke prides itself on its student environment\u2014 its sense of place. In a lot of ways, the Colket Center is the cultural hub of campus. The WRKE radio in Colket is a big part of that feeling of place even if it\u2019s just in the background. In those calm moments the radio in and around Colket can be a huge vibe if you listen close enough.<\/span><\/p>\n It figures that WRKE was just ranked 14<\/span>th<\/span> on the \u201cBest College Radio Station\u201d by the Princeton Review. We even have two of our own, Devon Mitchell (\u201822) and Kristi Rolf (\u201823) hosting their own radio show on Tuesdays at 7:00pm. \u201cWRKE is my favorite activity I\u2019ve done at Roanoke, and I think it\u2019s helped my communication skills a lot,\u201d said Rolf.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I couldn\u2019t tell you how many times I\u2019ve shamelessly Shazamed a song in Colket over the years. A great way to feel the spirit of campus is to come to Colket late in the evening, getting a bite to eat in Cavern or chilling in the game room. If you find yourself doing so, take a minute to listen to the music. You\u2019ll hear something you like!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" by Chamberlain Zulauf Looking for opinion article inspiration online I came across the above prompt, thanks to the folks at wowessays.com.
