      KUCR 88.3fm to re-air Tribute to UC Riverside Professor Lindon Barrett

      Lindon Barrett tribute mp3

      KUCR 88.3fm will re-air a tribute to the late Dr. Lindon Barrett, professor of English at the University of California Riverside, on Monday July 28 at 5pm and Tuesday July 29, at 7am.  Professor Barrett, who passed away about two weeks ago, was on the faculty of UCR for one year and also UC Irvine for a number of years prior.  He was a well-known figure on both campuses, and nationally known as a scholar.  The Lindon Barrett Tribute features colleagues and friends from Riverside, Irvine and elsewhere reflecting on the life, the personality, the scholarship and the many accomplishments of Lindon Barrett.

      The program was originally simulcast live by KUCR and KUCI on July 21.  The program was produced by host Dan Tsang at the KUCI studios, and involved a number of participants from UCR.  The coordinated simulcast was produced by KUCR Station Manager Louis Vandenberg.  The idea for the simulcast came from a discussion Vandenberg had with Susan Brown of the English Department.   “It was clearly the right thing to do, since Dr. Barrett had become such an important presence on both campuses,” said Vandenberg.  “And Dan Tsang did a great job hosting.  The program is very moving and well worth airing again.”  The host of the Barrett tribute, Dan Tsang, said of the broadcast tribute “Lindon’s passing is a huge loss.  I am glad to do my small part to bring people together.”

      At the end of the program, Vandenberg will read a statement from UC Riverside Chancellor Timothy White about Dr. Barrett.

      Following the broadcasts, the audio will be hosted at the station’s website, www.kucr.org
