Emma’s bright personality has been lighting up our airwaves since Fall 2010. One of several Greek DJs within the station, Emma brings a special type of charm to your airwaves!

When asked about the perks of the station, Emma responded “You get great experience planning events, practicing time management, and meeting new people. Plus there are lots of leadership opportunities. I’ve actually even had job interviews where they asked me about KMNR specifically, and I’ve been able to draw from experiences with KMNR to give interview answers. I’ve learned a lot and I’ll continue learning.”

“I love the station because everyone’s different; not only when it comes to music, but who we are as people. That kind of diversity makes us a really strong group. We have people from all walks of life, majors, campus groups, etc. coming together to bring quality products to campus, in the form of radio shows, concerts, and other great events.”

Emma’s broad background fits in perfect with the station. Emma is just one fish in the sea of diversity that is KMNR!

DJ Diversity @ KMNR: Toni Knar, aka ‘DJ TKO’
*Junior in Biological Sciences from Mundelein, IL
*Star basketball player, star DJ
———————————————————————————————-
Toni is one of the premiere lady basketball players in all of NCAA Division 2. Whether it’s popping three pointers on the court or hittin’ the 1’s and 2’s in the studio, she represents both Lady Miner Basketball and KMNR with the highest of regards.

When asked about some of challenges with time commitments, Toni responded with: “Being an athlete, I can speak for other students when I say that yes it is possible to be a DJ and still maintain your desired grade. I don’t think I have ever said this before, but joining KMNR has been by far the single most rewarding, transformative and life changing experience that I have had in my college career. The people of KMNR really accept you as family which is always warming. I play anything and everything! When I first joined, I was strictly into alternative rock and R&B. Now I listen to anything from Techno and Metal Rock to Indie and ska!”

We here at the station are so privileged to have such a shining star represent us! Toni is just one fish in the sea of diversity that is KMNR!
