WVUA-FM (90.7 FM, "The Capstone") is the student-run college radio station at the University of Alabama. The station was established for the purpose of giving students an environment in which they could learn to be radio broadcasters. ==History== WVUA was chartered in 1981, although student-run stations existed at UA since 1941. WVUA has changed its name a few times. It has been referred to as "V-91", "Rock of The South", and "New Rock 90.7." but it currently operates under the branding, "90.7 The Capstone." (The Capstone is an affectionate nickname for the University of Alabama.) Originally, the "VUA" in the station's call letters was used to suggest the "Voice of the University of Alabama," which is a tagline the station often uses. Starting in May 2007, the station started a revitalization project to make it "an agent for a collaborative community." This effort included collaborations with the Student Government Association, ''The Crimson White'', College of Nursing, Stillman College, University Programs, and more. WVUA-FM emphasizes local music that derives directly from the Tuscaloosa community. It airs local music and hosts benefit concerts that feature local bands. About two-thirds of WVUA operating budget is raised through sponsorships, benefits and other student-led fundraising efforts. WVUA also uses the tagline "The Capstone Sports Authority." It is the radio home for Crimson Tide gymnastics, soccer, and volleyball. Due to conflicting schedules, only home matches for soccer and volleyball are broadcast on the station, while both home and away events are broadcast for gymnastics. Before each football home game, the station airs "Crimson Tide GameDay". The station features sports in"The Student Section." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「WVUA-FM」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
