Editors note: this interview is part of a special edition of Sound Ideas celebrating WGLT's 50th anniversary.
Before there was a WGLT, there was a campus radio program at Illinois State that grew out of a short daily segment made available to the campus through a local commercial station. The man who envisioned an educational broadcast station out of those humble beginnings still lives in the twin cities. WGLT's Willis Kern has more with retired ISU Professor Ralph Smith.
Take a listen to the full 50th anniversary show.
