If you do not know, read on. Donna is an alumni of Penn State, Hazleton and University Park campuses. She graduated in 1977 with a Bacculaurate Degree in Journalism. Upon graduating, like any con structive, competent, degree bearing person, she attempted to find a job. Seeking em ployment at the NBC studio in New York City, she attempted to evect Walter Cronkite from his newschair, but without suc cess. At least she got attention and recognition for her absurb attempt. After an otherwise routine job hunting experience she moved her way to the illustrious WACM underwent a format change from an adualt com porary program to a 1940 Gospel Stint, she relinquished her position and returned to an unemployed status briefly. Her brillant work at WACM paved the way for her to obtain her present job at the Hazleton Broadcasting Company; home of WAZL (AM) and WVCD (FM) the position she now holds as ac count executive allows her to ap ply her creative ability to ad vertising. Many of the com mercials that you hear on WAZL and WVDC are produced and presented by Donna. Beginning in January she will be co producing and broadcasting the news for the Highacres Broad casting Company, while main taining her work in advertising to a lesser degree.

She, as a member of a competing media firm, is the exclusive priviledge cf having access the Hazleton Standard Speaker equitment. Because she has this privilege she is sought after by many area organizations and can provide double coverage of events through newspaper and radio services. Donna is also Public Relation person for Highacres campus publicing events sponsored by Highacres student and faculty, and Hazleton correspondent for the Harrisburg Patroit newspaper. Donna really en- joys her job meeting new people and becoming involved in new activities through journalism is a unique and fulfilling experience. Journalism also provides an inexhaustable source of knowledge since new ideas are being expressed continually through the media. Although Donna gets satisfac tion from her work and likes the people she works with in Hazleton, in order to take full advantage of her tremendous potential, she will have to find a more nationally recognized media service. It is not any secret that she intends to leave Hazleton, infact, her friend and co-workers are encouraging her to get out of here and'follow her ambitions. Once Donna (get up and going) we would like to wish her good luck. Give the world a love song, and maybe it’ll sing for you Give the world a joke, and maybe get a laugh or two Come on and share your joy, and peace and happiness too Give the world all you got it’s the least you can do.
