Volunteering at KUT

Spent three hours up on campus  at Communications B where I answered KUT volunteer phones to take  donations to the capital fund for the new building.  Kim gave us a virtual tour of the new space (beautiful and transparent) and many KUT announcers stopped by to say "hi, thank-you" and grab some food.  Ray Benson from ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL stopped in and after touring  made  a generous contribution.  Finally got to tell John Aiellie what a help he was when we transitioned from NYC, and tell Jay Trachtenberg I too am from the Bronx and was a social worker just like him.  We worked the same population too, child protective services and NICU babies.  Thank-you KUT for being such a great radio station, great music, helpful resource and NPR news.  You'd never know Rick Perry was the governor here after a day like today.
