Our History
In 2006, Selena Hill created Let Your Voice Be Heard! (LYVBH) as a platform for the students of SUNY Old Westbury to express their views on issues within the institution and the struggles they faced as young adults. The show also encouraged students to voice their musical and creative talents and it exposed young new artists and party promotion groups.
After a two year hiatus, LYVBH! was relaunched and reloaded in 2011. It serves with its original purpose at hand, but has expanded to become the voice of our generation of politically-minded adults and voters.
