This reminds me of when North Texas State University (NTSU) changed its name to University of North Texas (UNT). The potential vandalism of the new school logo was predictable enough, but I am happy to say that the school’s radio station (KNTU) did NOT change its call letters.

One of the local universities here is Furman University. Nobody ever complains about stuff that says FU in big letters ;^)

Awwwwwwwww! Memories! I was in the KNTU control room the very day the station went on the air and the very first words every said over the air were Gary Brown shouting at the top of his lungs "Flip the f**king switch!"

My and Bill Mercer's eyes rounded up to the size of dinner plates and we both figured KNTU would have the shortest license term in radio history, yet as time went by, the FCC never said a word.

Hard to believe that was nearly 40 years ago!

Wonder if the Radio & TV Department still have the video tapes of "Denton After Dusk" and "The Miss Waxahachie Contest" Vic Donovan and I brought to life? We also did a send up of "American Bandstand" complete with Lightning Loafers and the #1 Song being "My Baby's Dead" by the Gerber Brothers.

Gadzooks, they were fun days back then when Nixon was in office, chics dressed up wearing hose with their short skirts, the sexual revolution was in full bloom, AIDS was a diet suppliment and Watergate was just the name of a DC hotel/condo/office complex.

BTW Vic, if you are still alive and out there somewhere... tell me, did the rat and the roach ever get married? I think of them often and wonder.
