"The first member of the inaugural WJCU 88.7FM Hall of Fame class was announced live on air tonight, the one and only Bill Peters of WJCU Metal On Metal Radio Show!"

Our WJCU General Manager Jasen Sokol and a group of student staff members surprised me live on the air last night. They announced that I was the first inductee to our new WJCU Hall of Fame! Wow, how cool is that??? I had no idea. This is my 42nd year hosting a heavy metal radio program on WJCU/WUJC. I humbly accept this honor. Thank you, Jasen and staff members!!!
