Top radio deejay Tom Joyner will help kick off Hampton University s Homecoming 1998 festivities with a live broadcast from the campus Nov. 6. The Hampton University community and residents of the cities of Hampton Roads are welcome to attend the broadcast.
Admission is free.
His urban program treats listeners to an on-air team that reports and comments on the latest news of interest to the audience. Weaving it all together is his upbeat energy and humorous insights. Joyner, a four-time Billboard magazine award winner, began his radio career immediately after graduating from Tuskegee University. A native of Tuskegee, Ala., Joyner made headlines in the 1980s after working at various stations in Memphis, St. Louis, Dallas and Chicago. His daily round trip commute between Dallas and Chicago earned him national publicity and high ratings.
