What is College Radio Day??
On this first Friday of October marks the 15th Annual College Radio Day, and we’re so excited to celebrate with you! On this day, hundreds of college-ran radio stations will come together and celebrate the one thing that connects us all: college radio. College Radio Day aims to raise widespread recognition of the existing radio stations on campuses around the world. This is to encourage people to tune into shows and start listening more often, despite not being a regular listener.
The original idea for College Radio Day came from Dr. Rob Quicke (General Manager, WPSC FM, William Patterson University, NYC market), who founded it in December 2010 alongside Peter Kreten (General Manager, WXAV FM, Saint Xavier University, Chicago market). Click HERE to learn more
