Throughout history, radio itself has been a valuable and important medium for sharing knowledge, stories, and culture. Many University of Wisconsin schools have student-run radio stations that provide value directly to the students who run and operate those stations. These radio stations also have underlying outreach into their respective communities. Of the eight student-run stations discussed in this story, some have been broadcasting to their communities for decades, while others are still in their infancy. Not all universities across the UW-System have radio stations on their campuses, and some have faced hurdles along the way.
