This non-commercial student-operated radio station offers you hands-on learning opportunities much like those of a commercial radio station. WCUC-FM operates through a Scott System program that enables it to be on the air 24/7. DJ training every semester gives you the expertise you need to host your own shows.

As a member of WCUC-FM you have the opportunity to:

• provide local, regional and national news
• cover university and community events
• travel to sports events with university sports teams

Since non-commercial stations cannot sell advertising, WCUC-FM receives support in the form of underwriting through area businesses. Membership is open to all Clarion students. Students interested in joining are encouraged to do so at the beginning of the semester so they can be properly trained on the equipment. WCUC-FM is now available to stream online.
