This is the Manager's Minute.

Recently, KGOU welcomed two members of Oklahoma’s congressional delegation to the station for a tour and discussion of public media and KGOU.

U.S. Representatives Tom Cole and Stephanie Bice, who represent much of our listening area, became the first members of Congress to tour KGOU since we moved into our Copeland Hall studio on the OU campus.

We appreciate their interest in talking about how KGOU operates and serves the people of the 4th and 5th Congressional Districts and how support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting fuels the mission-driven work done by KGOU and NPR.

The visit was especially timely since it came on Public Radio Music Day – recognized by Congress to celebrate the music programs KGOU’s diverse listeners love and that NPR stations across the nation deliver to enrich their communities.

With the Manager’s Minute, I’m Dick Pryor.
