Ryan Murphy, a music director and deejay at KWVA, the University's student-operated radio station, will help with the station's
week-long birthday bash. The celebration is also a budget-boosting fundraiser for new digital equipment

realized the need for a local music
medium.
“Early on, there was almost a
militant feeling that the University
needed a station to promote inde
pendent labels, something other lo
cal stations weren’t doing,” said
Ken Fletcher, a Eugene resident
and deejay for KWVA since 1993.
Fletcher’s show, “Mr. Random,”
runs Tuesdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
In April 1991, KRMA began
broadcasting to the EMU Fishbowl
from a tiny room in the EMU base
ment. It was 1993 when the station
was finally licensed by the Federal
Communications Commission and
allowed to broadcast on a local fre
quency. The name was later
changed to KWVA.
Now KWVA broadcasts from a
remodeled women’s bathroom on
the mezzanine level of the EMU,
which also lent them the meaning
behind the banner slogan, “Smell
the Music.”
Because most radio stations
have already made the move to
digital broadcasting, students
from KWVA moving into radio ca
reers may find themselves a little
behind in the times if the station
doesn’t get more funding. KWVA
offers students the chance to
work in a fully functioning radio
station, but Nisser said the expe
rience can only be complete if
the station receives enough funds
to buy digital equipment.
However, KWVA has made
some modern advancements in
recent years, such as increasing
its outreach via the Internet. The
ability to broadcast on the Inter
net allows the station to go be
yond its local scope and reach the
world community. Local bands
featured on KWVA programs are
able to reach a much larger fan
base, which helps the station to
further its mission to “represent
the underrepresented.”
“Last week, we got a call from
Spain. It’s amazing, the channel
we have to the rest of the world,”
Cox said.
