Spirit of getting the best on the air

[Concerning our 2007 re-broadcast of the 1967 WMUB student production of A Christmas Carol, available as a podcast]:

While I did not participate in the production of this program, it was a great thrill to hear the voices of my classmates doing this classic story. I also enjoyed hearing the comments of Tom Collins (no relation) and Rick Ludwin in the interview segment beforehand. Tom’s story about using the pegboard hooks to simulate Marley’s chains was a small but telling example of the spirit of getting the best programs on the air with very little resources that marked a group of Miami students I was proud to be associated with.
