Both jobs are vastly different, but the skills I gained at Cedarville have translated perfectly to each.” Rebecca (Scarpone) Eichelberger ’13 Creative Director, The Money Guy Show “ Through intentional faculty mentorship and Resound Radio — what was then called WSRN — the broadcasting and digital media program gave me the tools and hands on experience to help me confidently graduate with a B.A. in communications. It was the foundation that I have built my career on.” Mike Davis ’98 CEO, UPTONE PICTURES Inc. “ The Cedarville broadcasting program (and Jim Leightenheimer) not only gave me the hands-on experience I needed to walk into a radio station and succeed from day 1, but it also connected me to graduates throughout the industry that helped shape me professionally while in school and after graduation.” Bill Montgomery ’93 President/CEO, The River Radio MEET SOME OF OUR ALUMNI Jim Houser ’91 – Chief Content Officer, Educational Media Foundation (KLOVE and Air 1) Todd Stach ’94– Owner/Talent Coach, Beyond 615 and Christian Music Editor, AllAccess.com Eric Case ’95 – General Sales Manager, Star 93.3, Cincinnati, OH Pete Fiveland ’96 – Business Manager, Salem Media, New York, NY Mandy (Prusha) Young ’99 – Vice President of Radio, Educational Media Foundation (KLOVE and Air 1) Kristi (Abildness) McElwee ’02 – Radio Host, WJTL and adjunct faculty, Lancaster Bible College, Lancaster, PA Joy (McBride) Melton ’10 – “Joy Summers,” Afternoon Host, WAY FM Network Jake Townsend ’13– Social Media Manager/Content Producer, WAY FM, Nashville, TN Angela (Schweinitz) McMurray ’15 – Show Host, 105.5 Hits FM, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Ben Coleman ’20 – Production Director – KGBI FM, Omaha, NE Alyx Vissing ’21 – Promotions Team Lead, 104.9 The River, Columbus, OH GET TO KNOW THE MAJOR STORYTELLING THROUGH VIDEO The broadcasting, digital media, and journalism major has expanded its use of video as a medium of communication, and Elizabeth Kollmar ’25 has taken her skills to a new level.
