College Radio Day!

Today is College Radio Day,a day to raise a greater national awareness of the many college and high school radio stations that operate in North America by encouraging people who would not normally listen to college radio to do so.

"The organizers of College Radio Day believe that college radio is one of the last remaining bastions of creative radio programming, free from the constrictions of having to be commercially viable, and a place where those involved in its programming believe passionately in its mission. College radio is the only free live medium brave enough to play unsigned, local, and independent artists on a regular basis.  Indeed, many famous and successful bands today, owe their initial break to being played on colllege radio. Put simply, college radio is an important part of the North American media landscape  because of its unique and fearless programming."

Today, WXAC is doing a live blues performance by Bob Hassler, one of our fellow DJs, in Jake's at 8:30. Stop by and enjoy some free entertainment with your food! Also, the entire day will be student programming, so stay tuned!
