Abstract:

The student-run campus radio station, WWWS, was extremely popular among students. So popular, in fact, that when the station switched to only FM broadcasting, there was a rush to switch by students on campus as well.

Abstract:

The song, “I Like Callin’ North Carolina Home,” became a statewide hit when it began airing as public service spots on radio and television stations in August, 1977. The song was put together by producer Chuck Blore and radio broadcaster Jim Heavner, and largely supported by the state’s government. Now an unofficial state slogan, the song proclaims that North Carolina is a great place to live because of the good people who help to make it that way.
