September, once again. The time for new classes, new shows, and lots of new members. Here’s a glimpse into what the station has been up to recently.

Student DJs Michelle, left, and Katie, right, on the air with some our incoming freshmen DJs.
Lindsay, one of our membership directors, and Grin, her dog, go-go dancing to the Arcade Fire.
The WMBR office. Maybe not the most productive office, but definitely the best.
That’s all I’ve got for now. More to come in the upcoming weeks as we get settled in and start our new programming season (September 30th)!
