Why You should Apply to be a DJ

Let’s be honest here, WXYC is a frat. You go through initiation processes (i.e. “hazing”) of being a new DJ, you meet a bunch of like-minded (albeit, weird) folks, and eventually, you’ll probably start living together or talking the same or doing each others’ hair and getting in each others’ general business. Here at XYC, we consider ourselves so deeply indebted to the Greeks, that if not for the sheer, immutable essence of variety, we would play Diamanda Galás, Iannis Xenakis, and Yanni 24 hours a day.

mMmm

But I guess, we have our differences too. Instead of tossing the ol’ pigskin on the lawn, you can toss old, valuable records in The Union* (Ultimate game of ultimate frisbee?). Instead of seeing salmon or khaki slacks supporting pressed polos, you’ll probably find more thrift store fashion (as our über-stylin’, fearless, femininity-bending station manager can attest).

Rather than getting front-of-the-line consideration at dad’s law firm, you'll get front-of-the-line (free!) tickets to various shows in the area.

If you’re interested in rushing, Tuesday, January 17 we’re having an open house from 5-6PM in our lavish home, the abandoned warehouse that is the under-construction back of the Union (room 3420 for enquiring minds, but these days, that number doesn’t matter much). Afterwards, there’s an interest meeting at 7 on the steps of Carroll Hall where we’ll explain our objectives, and you’ll get an application in which you sign up for a short interview time (more on that later…maybe).

But all of that you could have figured out here in this handy Facebook event.

So if you like a bunch of various kinds of music (Yes, there’s more to life than Yanni), and have a voracious appetite to learn more. C’mon down. Be a DJ!

Also, you’ll probably definitely love it.

Go Greek! Go W Ξ Y C !
