WAYNE – For its participation in World College Radio Day on Oct. 4, KWSC-FM 91.9 The Cat has received a 2024 Spirit of College Radio Award – making it one of only 10 college radio stations in the world to get the award this year.
KWSC-FM was one of seven college radio stations to get the award.
“I am honored that KWSC has received this award,” said Dr. Sean X. Ahern, associate professor of communications at Wayne State. “College radio is an important space for students to curate their creativity while acting as a font for alternative voices and music. World College Radio Day highlights the unique sounds of college radio and the students who inject their everyday lives onto the airwaves.”
“Students in our program have the exceptional opportunity to practice what they learn in the classroom,” added Ahern. “KWSC students leave with practical experience that sets them on the trajectory for success as media professionals.”
