Bill Knarr ‘94- Another connection to Penn State, Bill’s father was a graduate! Their family actually used to live in Happy Valley, PA. Bill recently e-mailed Mr. Jeppi about Paterno’s death. He connected a statement that Mr. J once made, to memories of Paterno saying, “Success, with honor.”
The staff at BIM would like to thank and welcome John Wilsbach! Wilsbach remembers Mrs. Lynn Jeppi from recruiting for BIM in the early-late 90’s. He is a professional who has started giving presentations to the Pennsylvania area High Schools about careers in the field of broadcasting to juniors and seniors. We are looking forward to him helping us ROCK ENROLL!
