I was a late bloomer.  I graduated from Rice in 1995, and, though I listened to KTRU some, I didn’t deejay.

Fast forward to 2004, 9 years after graduation and with an MBA under my belt, I put out an indie album as a way to deal with life in corporate America.  I pressed 2000 CDs.  Not knowing really what to do with them once I got them, I marched a copy over to KTRU.  The deejay on staff played a track from my record right there and then – on the air!  I fell in love with the deejay booth, the station, and the thought of deejaying right then and there.

I ended up deejaying for a semester, 9-10 years after graduating, on Wednesdays (I think it was) from 4-7 a.m.  Then I drove to work.  I loved it.  I only regret that it took me so long to realize what a gem KTRU really is.

Rice won’t get another dime from me if they go through with this sale, and I’ve done my best to make them know that.

Let me know what else I can do.

Sincerely,

Jeff Greer
