WXYC Playlist Recipients,
The following charts reflect the combined airplay for the last three 
unreported weeks. Regular weekly airplay charting will resume next week.
WXYC also has a new music director. After three years, I (David) have 
turned the position over to Evan Davis, so please update address books 
accordingly. Evan's office hours this semester will be Monday nights from 
5:30 to 7:30, though email tracking is - as always - more reliable.
Thanks for looking!
David & Evan
