Do you have superior musical taste that you believe the world (or at least all Penn Staters in the BJC) should hear? Ever wish you could DJ THON and have some control over the coveted aux? Here’s your chance.

This year at THON, you can text “THONDJ” to 50550 to request a song to be played. This could be your chance to grace thousands of people with your song of choice. Maybe it will give the dancers that little bit of extra energy they need to get through a down-period of THON. Maybe the rest of the BJC will sing along with your choice as MC. Who knows – you might even ignite some hope from within.

While your phone is open – if you’re really in the giving mood – you can always text “THON” to 50555 to make a $10.00 donation.
