Who runs WWCU?

Proposed new name for WWCU 90.5 FM.

CULLOWHEE –– A group of prominent Western Carolina University radio alumni are pushing the university’s leadership to put its radio station WWCU Power 90.5 back in student hands.

Led by Mike Jackson, owner of Creative Audio Productions in Charlotte, the alumni professionals are petitioning the school’s administrators to turn the station back over to a student general manager and move from Classic Rock to a Top 40 setup to better reflect student music tastes. The university, at least so far, is having none of it, so the alumni have responded with a Facebook campaign that includes a radio demo, official correspondence from administrators, and lots of impassioned pleas.
