Rick is a card carrying member of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Radio and Television Artists (SAG-AFTRA). He teaches audio and video storytelling at UWRF and since 1998, he’s enjoyed being associated with that roller coaster ride we fondly call, “Pure Radio 88.7.”


Faculty Advisor

sandra.ellis@uwrf.edu

Sandy teaches broadcast news writing and reporting and provides guidance to WRFW’s news and public affairs staff. She has worked as a radio news director and reporter, TV reporter/photographer and a newspaper reporter/photographer. Sandy also spent 3 years as a TV “weather girl” in the days when that was a common term for weather reporters who were women. She still wonders why the men weren’t called “weather boys.”
