A little bit about Greg White:

I am excited to be in Elkins, working in a great community with this fantastic radio station.  I started in radio in 1983, as a high school kid.  I have been part-time, and full-time, in radio since that year.  I’ve worked in Beckley, Mount Hope, Oak Hill, and Charleston.  There’s really nothing in radio I haven’t done.  As much as I enjoy playing music, my absolute favorite thing in radio is Play by Play.  I’ve been doing High School and College football and basketball play by play since 1990.  As part of a team in Charleston, we won the “Best Play by Play Broadcast” award 6 years in a row… and I won the individual “Best Play By Play Announcer” a few years ago.  I’ve done high school sports in Beckley, Shady Spring, Charleston, and most recently, Tygarts Valley.  For two years, I was the play by play guy for WV State University, and am part of the MetroNews Sports Team for the annual Mountain East Conference Basketball Tournament.

I am also honored to be a Retired Senior Master Sergeant from the US Air Force, with nearly 28 years of service.  I served part time for a few years and ended my career an active duty capacity with the WV Air National Guard.  I was fortunate to maintain my part-time radio career during my military service, and am proud to have served this state and country.

I have been married to my amazing wife, Diana, since 2019. We are die-hard WVU Mountaineer football and basketball fans, and I’ve been a fan of the New England Patriots since 1975.  So you’ll find us watching sports in the fall and winter… and spending our summers out by the firepit.

I’ve lived most of my life in Fayette County, but moved to this area about a year ago… and am loving every minute of it.  It’s beautiful here and the people are some of the nicest I’ve ever met.  I will be here every weekday morning from 6am until 10am… and will even visit with you on the weekends… playing Elkins Greatest Hits on 94.7 WELK.

BUCKHANNON, West Virginia – West Virginia Wesleyan College’s new director of career services and experiential learning discovered his own passion in helping students navigate their next steps.

Dr. Justin Bowers recently came to the College from Upshur County Schools.

“For a long time, I have wanted to connect to higher education,” he said. “I was teaching at the high school last year. I loved the opportunity to teach, but really got passionate about helping upperclassmen think about next steps – whether that was higher education, employment or enlisting in the military – that was the most fun I had.

“When I saw the position of director of career services and experiential learning was open, I felt like it was a great fit. Being a community member, I have floated around the outskirts of West Virginia Wesleyan College, but to be a part of this community in this role is really, really exciting to me.”

The Office of Career Services and Experiential Learning has also moved. Students will find Bowers on the second floor of the Benedum Campus Center in the Student Development suite  when they return in August.

“My primary roles are going to be networking to make sure we have strong internships and experiential learning opportunities for students,” Bowers said. “I will also be developing career services to help students with building effective resumes and cover letters, interview skills, finding the right job or grad school after college.”

Bowers views his office as a campus resource center for students as they look at their next professional steps.

“Everybody comes to college thinking about what they are excited to learn, what they are passionate about, what career they want to pursue,” he said. “I think having a resource with very practical steps they can take to move toward their goals is very helpful.”

Bowers grew up in Buckhannon and moved back in 2012. He earned a Ph.D.  in organizational leadership and has spent the last 10 years pastoring a church locally and working in the school system while building a business for leadership developing and coaching and consulting. He and his wife, Carrie, have four daughters.
