The panel discussion, “Careers in Broadcasting: Tomorrow’s Local Wireless Media,” will be held at 4 p.m. in the Joyce Hergenhan Auditorium in Newhouse 3. Panelists include legendary sportscaster Len Berman ’68; Dave Davis, president and general manager of WABC-TV in New York City; Ed Levine ’78, CEO of Galaxy Communications; Deon Levingston, vice president and general manager of Emmis Communications; Marvin Scott, news anchor at WPIX-TV in New York City; Norm Silverstein, president and CEO of WXXI Public Broadcasting Council; and Theresa Underwood, vice president and general manager of WSYR-TV in Syracuse.

The ceremony will include remarks from NYSBA president David Donovan; Newhouse Dean Lorraine Branham; and Levine.
“We are honored to have the New York State Broadcasters Association’s Hall of Fame located at the Newhouse School at Syracuse University,” says Donovan. “It will connect the legends of broadcasting with tomorrow’s leaders.
