EKU In National Spotlight As GMA Profiles Weather Anchor Sam Champion

Eastern Kentucky University will be in the national spotlight on Friday, September 13th as ‘Good Morning America’ weather anchor Sam Champion will be profiled.

Champion graduated from EKU with a bachelor’s degree in broadcasting in 1983.

In a series of segments, GMA is taking a look back at the college days of each of its anchors.

A video crew spent almost 12-hours on the EKU campus in Richmond on August 28th, essentially re-creating Champion’s campus experience.

The segment will air during GMA sometime between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., exclusively on ABC 36.
