Radio and TV personality Charlamagne Tha God visited Syracuse University yesterday.

Charlamagne made his way up from South Carolina, and is now a star in the number one U.S. radio market.  The Breakfast Club Morning Show co-host visited Syracuse University last night and encouraged students at the Newhouse School to empower themselves by creating their own platforms, being resourceful, and blending their certification (degree) with real-world education. He said he was motivated early by radio personalities such as Wendy Williams, Howard Stern, Tom Joyner and the late Doug Banks.

Learn to recognize good opportunities even if they don’t come with a paycheck, he said.

Known for juggling many appearances and media gigs, he also shared that he is currently reading The One Thing by Gary Zeller.
