Congratulations go out to Estefanie Garcia, a student of First Voice, Radio Arte's flagship news program. Estefanie was recently admitted into Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism. Kudos!
From Radio Arte's newsletter: “I believe that the happiest moment of my life was when I found out that I had been accepted into Northwestern University . When I had first started my application, I had selected to apply as undecided for my major. Towards the end of the summer, though, I began to consider a career in journalism. This new-found interest led me to apply to the training program at Radio Arte. With the journalism and radio classes that were given, I saw that I enjoyed this field of work which led me to apply to the Medill School of Journalism. Northwestern will be a new and possibly scary experience, but I feel confident that the training and experience that I have received at Radio Arte will help me succeed.”

Congratulations to Irene Tostado of RadioArte!
Irene Tostado of Radio Arte has been named Youth Media Professional of the Month by YM Reporter. Kudos! See the piece on her here. Couple highlights:
+ Irene has a degree in Communications, Spanish and Sociology from Loyola University. While at Loyola’s Center for Urban Research and Learning (CURL) she coordinated an evaluation project involving the Native American community in the Uptown neighborhood, the Native American Health Center and Mayor Daley’s Domestic Violence HELP Hotline.
+ Irene became involved in immigration advocacy (after an encounter between immigration officials and her family) and works to raise awareness among Latinos about changing legislation affecting immigrants.
+ Irene is the Training Program Director for Radio Arte 90.5fm and produces two ‘live’ radio programs – “Without Borders” for Radio Arte and “Stereotipo” for La Kalle 103.1 and 93.5fm. She also writes for “Extra Newspaper” and “La Raza.”
Sounds like a well-deserved honor!
