Al Levine has taken on two new roles. In addition to hosting “The Boss Radio Hall of Fame” on Wednesday nights for Press Communications’ Classic Rock WWZY (107.1 The Boss)/Long Branch, NJ (BMM 9/24), he has joined Nassau Community College’s 90.3 WHPC in Garden City, NY, as the “Assistant to the Director” and a “Professional In Residence.”
Through his work with student and volunteer hosts, Levine aims to jumpstart their professional experience, equipping them with an advantage over competitors when applying for industry positions. The station has a track record of placing students in careers at prominent media companies like iHeartMedia, Connoisseur Media, Cox Media Group, and JVC Media.
Levine said, “I am excited and can’t get wait to get started at WHPC. I’ve had the privilege to help, hire and inspire talent on a professional level, many of whom got their start on air and have gone on to bigger radio markets. I thank Shawn for recognizing my experience which should prove instrumental for this position. Did I mention this is going to be fun?”
Shawn Novatt, WHPC Faculty Director, said, “I am excited about bringing Al Levine to the WHPC scene. Having also worked in commercial radio before coming to NCC, I know first-hand what Al will bring to the station, including his ability to help guide on-air personalities to get the best out of them both on, and off the air. The future of WHPC – and the radio industry – is brighter than ever, and I can’t wait to add to what we do at WHPC with Al at the station.”
