by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System
February 25, Garden City, NY - SUNY Nassau Community College is pleased to announce that WHPC 90.3 FM, “The Voice of Nassau Community College,” has once again been named the Best College Radio Station in the nation by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System (IBS). This marks the fifth time WHPC has won the award in the last seven years.
WHPC also won awards for Best Foreign Language Show for “Lithuanian Landslide” hosted by Community Volunteer “Mark from Floral Park” Adomaitis, and Best Show Intro for The Nassau Mix, produced by WHPC staff member Justin Greenberg.
“I am incredibly proud of the work being produced,” said Shawn Novatt, Director of WHPC and member of the full-time faculty. “While it is always an honor to hear our station’s name called at an award ceremony, it comes as no surprise. Each time I listen to our programming, I am reminded that our students, staff, and community volunteers consistently create content worthy of recognition. Congratulations to everyone who has contributed on air over the past year — this achievement belongs to you.”
Nassau Community College’s radio station is home to approximately 100 volunteers, most of whom are Nassau Community College students. Its programming includes sports, entertainment and informational shows, including a variety of music shows featuring pop, rock, polka and Italian music. The station can be heard at 90.3 FM and worldwide through the iHeartRadio, Audacy, TuneIn, and ‘WHPC’ apps, as well as Amazon Alexa and Google Home devices (say “Play WHPC!”). It is the only college radio station in Nassau and Suffolk to broadcast in high definition.
