Thanksgiving Day will mark the 40th anniversary of a tradition at Fredonia Radio Systems started by a longtime faculty member.

Department of Communication Adjunct Lecturer Vincent Quatroche will once again broadcast live on FRS from 9 a.m. to noon on the holiday. Quatroche plays many different types of music during the three-hour show and calls it “His gift to the community.”

He noted, “It's become part of my holiday rituals just like cooking the holiday dinner and putting up Christmas lights.”

FRS General Manager Justin Hooch commented, “We are thankful that Professor Quatroche is keeping the tradition alive especially with a commitment to a live show. Many programs these days are voice tracked ahead of time.”

In October 2023 Quatroche was awarded the first ever “Commy” from communication department faculty in recognition of his dedication and excellence in teaching at SUNY Fredonia.
