Sacred Heart University’s WSHU public radio station announced on July 23 that Brad Dancer will take the helm of one of the region’s chief providers of public radio programming.
Dancer, who has worked for 20 years in the fields of broadcast journalism, media production, and corporate strategy, will oversee day-to-day operations as well as spearhead new initiatives.
“WSHU has a remarkable legacy of excellence, and I am honored to be part of this community,” Dancer said. “The collective talent and passion of the WSHU team has earned us the loyalty of our dedicated audience as well as countless prestigious awards. This uniquely positions us for success, and I am confident that, together, we will achieve even greater things.”
WSHU is owned and operated by Sacred Heart University. University President John Petillo expressed confidence in the appointment.
“WSHU is a unique organization whose mission is to serve our community with extraordinary programming that informs and inspires. I am confident that Dancer will foster a culture of innovation and shepherd the station into a new era of content creation that goes well beyond the radio,” Petillo said.
