WHYY Studio Tour

See the radio studios where Terry Gross records “Fresh Air;” go behind the scenes of the TV production studios and hear Bill Weber, CTO of WHYY, discuss the various technologies they use to create the programming that makes WHYY the station it is. Delaware Valley alums will join with the Princeton MIT Club for this special WHYY tour. Plus, WHYY CEO Bill Marazzo will address the group on the various things that they are doing to promote science and technology within the community and answer questions about the programming and future direction of WHYY.
The tour will begin at 2:00, and last for 90 minutes to two hours. After the tour we will have the option to gather with our friends from the Princeton Club at Jones Restaurant.
 
Adults and children are welcome. We will limit attendance to 60 people and break up into smaller groups for the tour.
