Ms. Trena Brae is a 2015 Broadcasting graduate from City College who went on to Nova University and graduated with a Bachelor’s in Public Relations.
She spoke to broadcasting students about how to apply themselves as they pursue their dreams of becoming broadcasters. She told them they need to study, work hard, practice their craft in class, and use every opportunity they get to expose themselves to real-life experiences in media.
Ms. Brae encouraged the students to utilize their time at City College to learn as much as they can about broadcasting, because the knowledge she acquired as a broadcasting student helped her in her studies at Nova, and also in the various positions she has occupied in the field since graduating with her broadcasting degree. She explained that her City College broadcasting training not only opened her eyes to the intricacies of the industry, but it reduced her time at Nova because of transferred credits.
During her time at City College, Ms. Brae served as Secretary of the Broadcasting Club, a City College Ambassador, and graduated summa cum laude.
Thank you Ms. Brae for visiting and sharing your experience.

My office. Note my open window with real sunlight. Eat it, corporate slaves.
Believe it or not, I started cleaning the office recently, but never finished.
Google Maps identifies the right tower site as KCOP/13's. That looks like mounting for an FM on the side. Or maybe it was for an auxiliary TV antenna. In any case the tower was gone by 2007, when Google Streetview shows nothing but a gap in the fence.
The tower on the left is KLVE/107.5.

Steve Smith - Well, Lisa, it seems that our friend China has started producing large WMDs, and the UN has been posting sanctions. Regardless of the sanctions, China continued production. Their leader, Li Wong, has been involved in numerous black market incidents involving weapons. His military force is gaining power, and is now a world threat.
Lisa: Well, Rick... this seems to be quite a problem. As things are heating up in China, things are also heating up in Alaska! Permafrost is slowly melting. More news about Alaska's warming after this commercial break!

About the Sky Tree Tower:
Because the site is bordered by (1) rivers, (2) rails, and (3) roads, the designers started with an equilateral triangular base. Vertical lines visually rise like a tripod on this base. The triangle form gradually becomes a circle at the top.
"The change from the triangle to the circle also entailed warp and camber which are traditional shapes in Japanese culture"—Nikken Sekkei Design ConceptStructurally, the tower is built like a giant tree with deep roots into the ground. At the base, steel tubes (2.3 meters in diameter and 10 centimeters thick) form the base of the structure's trunk, a series of trusses and branch joints. The reinforced concrete center column is structurally separate from the surrounding steel framing, an earthquake-resistant design similar to muli-storied pagoda temples.
Why 634 Meters?
"The sound of the number 634 when read in old Japanese numbers is mu-sa-shi, which reminds Japanese people of Musashi Province of the past, that used to cover a large area, including Tokyo, Saitama and part of Kanagawa Prefecture.";—Sky Tree Official Website
Two areas are open to the public (fee required):

30th April 1975:
Saigon surrenders
The war in Vietnam ended today as the government in Saigon announced its unconditional surrender to North Vietnamese forces.
The President, Duong Van Minh, who has been in office for just three days, made the announcement in a radio broadcast to the nation early this morning. He asked his forces to lay down their arms and called on the North Vietnamese Army and Vietcong to halt all hostilities.
In a direct appeal to the Communist forces, he said: "We are here to hand over to you the power in order to avoid bloodshed."
The announcement was followed swiftly by the arrival of North Vietnamese troops. Their entrance was virtually unopposed, confounding predictions of a bloody and protracted last-ditch battle for the city.
War ends
The front line of tanks smashed through the gates of the presidential palace within minutes, and at 1130 local time (0330 GMT), decades of war came to an end.
Vietcong troops, many barefoot and some no more than teenagers, rounded up government soldiers, and raised their red and blue flags. The looting which has ravaged the city over the last 24 hours stopped, and power was restored later in the day. Only the United States embassy remained closed and silent, ransacked by looters.
Saigon was immediately renamed Ho Chi Minh City. A statement by the Provisional Revolutionary Government, or PRG, in Paris, promised a policy of non-alignment, and the peaceful reunification of Vietnam.
The British government is now urgently reviewing the possibility of recognising the PRG. France has already recognised the new regime, and other Western countries are preparing to follow suit.
Frenzied evacuation
The capitulation of the South Vietnamese government came just four hours after the last frenzied evacuation of Americans from the city.
President Ford, who has requested humanitarian aid for the Vietnamese, let it be known that he was proud to have saved what Vietnamese he could in the last, frantic helicopter evacuation.
But there is said to be deep humiliation in the United States government at the desperation and chaos of the final hours of America's presence in Vietnam.
The President ordered United States ships to remain indefinitely off the Vietnamese coast to pick up refugees: but even this gesture has been snubbed by the North Vietnamese, who have prevented any more refugees from fleeing.
