Our afternoon host, Phil Jones is leaving WERS after Friday March 22nd. Don’t worry, it’s all good for him! He’s moving on to bigger things as the Operations manager at WCRB (oooh, fancy!)
THE HISTORY OF PHIL
Even though we’re sad to be losing him, we’re proud of him and his journey: starting as student “You Are Here” reporter, then an over-enthusiastic (his words) part-time Sunday night host, eventually becoming a member of the professional staff in 2018 as Afternoon Host, Content Coordinator.
He provided mentorship to so many students and was the swiss army knife of the station. If you had a question (especially about Standing Room Only), you asked Phil. We are so thankful for his 10(!) years of passion and commitment to WERS and proud of him becoming another media success story of our first 75 years of broadcasting at Emerson College.
Thanks Phil! Your “true North” compass will be remembered and carried on by all of us!
