It’s that time again….the changing of the guard if you will. We need some fresh minds to join the station exec staff so we can keep up the momentum that we achieved this semester. Please fill out our application ASAP so we can get all of the new staff confirmed before the semester ends. We need people to fill all sorts of positions so if you have a skill, I’m sure we can find a way to utilize it at the station. Everyone has something to bring to the table and we look forward to getting more people involved.

We beat Pitchfork to the punch!
This past weekend WDCV brought Wiz Khalifa to town for Saturday’s hip-hop night of our Rock-Hop weekend. His new mix tape, Kush & OJ, came out just a few days earlier. Despite pitchfork’s snobbery of having their finger on the pulse of new, underground music, we were a step ahead of them on this one. WOOT! Check out their review, they gave his mixtape a 7.2. Not bad. Not bad at all.
