When I was a student at Sir George Williams University in the early 1960’s, I founded Radio Sir George. That first year, we did not have a license and a broadcast transmitter and studios. However it worked as follows. CBM radio station of the CBC
gave the organization known as “Radio Sir George” a 15 minute time slot to broadcast a weekly show that I produced and recorded on audio tape. It consisted of interviews with students and staff on current topics and issues of relevance each week. I edited the interviews and compiled the final tape for broadcast from 7 to 7:15pm weekly. I personally delivered the tape to CBC fir broadcasting. I don’t recall which day of the week it was broadcast, but I believe it was midweek... maybe a Wednesday... same day every week. What happened the following year, and who took over the responsibility of continuity,I do not know. .

From 1979 until 2020, I personally founded/owned an accredited career college, Trebas Institute, which I sold in 2020 to an international university.

P.S. I also produced/directed the annual SGWU Winter Carnival Variety Shows (1959 and 1960) ,
which were publicized on the Radio Sir George broadcasts. Although the variety show had a history of decades prior to my producing the event, my
productions were the first ever to feature, not only Sir George talent but also, world famous entertainers; the first was comedian Milton Berle.
and country singer Ronnie Prophet, at a major downtown theatre.I still have printed program and photos of shows. Davidpleonard18 (talk) 05:36, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
