The leaves may fall, but WRCT stays strong.
The days are getting shorter, school is back in swing, and soon the trees will be changing color. You know what that means! It means the Earth is in the part of its orbit where the northern hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun so that we get less exposure to its rays in a 24-hour period. It ALSO means WRCT’s Fall Schedule is up and running, full of vim and vigor.
After a somewhat uncluttered summer, WRCT’s DJs have come back from their vacations ready to kick some auditory ass. We’ve got the olds, the news, and the what-the-heck-is-this-I-can’t-evens. “Consolidation” is now followed by “Post-Progressive Disorder” (so you can have a full 5 hours of loud), the “Power Block of Power” continues to dominate Thursday afternoons, Zombo still messes with your brain on Friday, and we’ve got our good friend Juan doing “music to ink by” from the wilds of Vermont!
If none of those sound appealing, just give the schedule page a quick glance and I’ll bet you find something you like, especially since we have near solid live-programming from 8 a.m. until 2 a.m. everyday. Stay tuned, keep those dials at 88.3, and maybe you’ll find something you didn’t expect.

Hey there listeners!
Do you like free stuff? We love it.
The best music festival in Pittsburgh is rapidly approaching and it’s called VIA. They’re in the process of running some sort of wacky contest where whoever can identify the most artists in a GIF wins an All-Access pass to the festival. For more details and an opportunity to induce a seizure go to via-pgh.com.

With the start of the 2012-2013 academic year swiftly approaching, tons of new students from around the world will be moving in a Carnegie Mellon. To make the process more enjoyable for all, WRCT has partnered with CMU’s Housing and Dining Services to bring our brand new members of the campus community a special Move-In broadcast.
This Sunday, August 19, we’ll be bringing you live updates on Orientation and traffic, mixed in with some of our favorite tunes. The broadcast begins at 9 a.m. and runs until 4 p.m. Tune in in your car (88.3 FM) or online (wrct.org). Regularly scheduled programming will be preempted during this broadcast.
Satellite broadcasts will also be available on campus at Morewood Gardens, The Hill, and The Residence on Fifth.
We’ll bee broadcasting live from Morewood Gardens, so stop by and say hello to our staff!
On behalf of all of us here at WRCT: Welcome, Class of 2016!
