Episode Synopsis "Winthrop Day broadcast (hour 3), Dr. George Hynd & Anna Sharpe"

(Rock Hill, S.C.) -- Eagle Air hosted a special broadcast for Virtual Winthrop Day (April 25), which included interviews with students, faculty, staff and alumni, in order to give prospective students and families a look at what it's like to be part of the Winthrop community. We also asked people to share songs they would recommend for our #PandemicPlaylist. In the third hour we spoke with Dr. George Hynd, the new interim president of Winthrop, about his background and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the university. Hynd also discussed his in interest in music, including his time in a garage surf band named "The Six-Pack." Additionally, we spoke with Anna Sharpe, a junior mass communication major and editor in chief of The Johnsonian, about her experience at Winthrop.
