We honor people for the wonderful contributions they've made to KRFC, including the people in power, volunteers, underwriters, listeners, members, and grantors.
People should not be allowed to use their positions of power and trust to hurt others. Active volunteers have left and other people have avoided KRFC because of the unmitigated behaviors of people in power. Some who've left are influential in groups who have previously benefited KRFC with volunteers (universities for example). The collective benefit of the alienated past and future volunteers may even outweigh the benefit of those kept in power at KRFC.
