...Then WCMO-FM is
for you!
WCMO-FM gives Marietta
College students the opportunity to create, produce and star
in their own radio programs broadcast on a small 10-Watt station
to the Marietta College campus.
Students in the Mass Media
Department are given rather wide creative license to develop
all programming on WCMO-FM. The station is not locked into
any one format, and musical tastes and program styles differ
widely from talk to music of all genres.
Not only do students have
rather broad creative license, but they also get practical
hands-on experience in developing and maintaining radio broadcasts.
WCMO-FM is now 40 years
old and was originally developed under the leadership of Dr.
Bernard Russi of the Speech Department. Later, the station
became part of the Mass Media Department as a station designed
to meet the needs of students and the college community.
Anyone interested in developing
programming and being a part of the WCMO-FM radio family should
contact either Ralph Matheny, mathenyr@marietta.edu, or Dennis
Lebec at lebecd@marietta.edu. Interested students may also
contact Mass Media Department Chair Thomas S. Hodson at 740-376-4804
or hodsont@marietta.edu.
