Emma Halsey ’23 fell in love with radio during her time studying at Shippensburg University. “Originally, I went on the Public Relations route. Once I started taking classes and really getting into it, I found a love of Radio and Broadcast Production. By my junior year of college, I had switched my concentration to Visual Media.” Being the General Manager of WSYC-88.7 FM, the on-campus radio station, she learned how to work under pressure, work with colleagues and hit deadlines. 

After receiving her degree in Communications/Journalism and Media with an emphasis in Visual media, Halsey started working at WITF, in Harrisburg, PA as a Part-Time host, eventually being promoted to Full-Time as an Audio Producer, Engineer, Radio Host and event staff. Halsey has now worked on numerous projects, most notably, help kickstart the Creator Academy, a program that allows college students to apply and see what it is really like in the field. “It is important to realize what you are getting into in terms of career, and I love that I am a part of a program that not only allows students to showcase their creativity but also teaches them a little more about the ins and outs of daily production work.” 

Halsey credits Shippensburg University for helping her land her dream job at WITF, “Everything I learned at Ship I have applied to my roles at WITF.” Additionally, Getting involved in student media has given Halsey experiences that helped her land her job. “Student media groups are there for a reason, they are not just like any other clubs. They will get you those internships and jobs outside of school!”
