Please respond to classmate posting.. nicely
LaTrell Vasser Sunday 1. The problem at WBCA is that despite the positions being highly sought after. Those who are picked still end up being somewhat incompetent. Specifically abiding by the FCC on air rules. The student workers don't fully understand the magnitude of breaking these rules. Though this is something that reoccurs the real problem definitely is training/management. Perhaps the reparations for breaking said rules are minimal which promotes them to not care too much for the repercussions. 2. My opinion | feel as though Caldera matches most with the third style which is supporting. She gives all of the workers the necessary tools, and perhaps some feedback, but they still have full dominion at the end of the day. I would advise Caldera to rev up her directing engine, because these guys definitely need clear concise direction. She allows herself to get to know her workers, and then coach on their strengths which is no not necessarily wrong, but I would assume trial & error gets old after a while. Especially with certain expectations. When at work the very last thing you should be doing is breaking laws. Caldera needs to raise her expectations of students following the guidelines. 3. If I were her I would construct a module learning course based off of the rules that are broken the most from the FCC on my station, and all of my student workers would have to pass that test with a 90% or to be allowed to work on air. Thus those who take their roles seriously, and obey laws would reduce the infractions dramatically. Those who have not passed may sit in if accompanied by myself or a worker who has shown exceptional booth behavior. Also, there are a lot of things to be done around a radio station. There is so much preparation that needs to be done. Not everyone needs to be on air
