Andy Goldstein of Cherry Hill joined Erica Guidetti of Glenolden, Pa , in producing an award-winning Rowan Radio documentary. The two, both senior radio/television/film students at Rowan University, created Changing Stations: Radio in Philadelphia. The Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) selected the work to receive the Region 1 Mark of Excellence Award for in-depth reporting.

The documentary looks at Philadelphia radio personalities of the past. It touches on the rivalry between rock stations WIBG-AM and WFIL-AM, on sports-talk stations WIP-AM and WPEN-AM, and on the arrival of WCAU-FM, now "oldies" station WOGL.

Changing Stations also won first place in competitions sponsored by the College Broadcasters Inc., Philadelphia Achievement in Radio and the Broadcast Education Association.
