WVUD

WVUD, the Voice of the University of Delaware, is the university’s non-profit educational radio station. WVUD has three missions: to serve the University of Delaware, to serve the city of Newark, and to train broadcasting students. Our offices and studios are located at the Perkins Student Center.

Our transmission facilities are located on top of the Christiana East residence hall. WVUD is run by University of Delaware students, a two-person staff, and community members. You do not need to have prior radio experience or be enrolled in a specific major to participate in our activities. Our programs are as diverse as our membership. We have everything. Name any type of music that interests you, and we’ll have it on our schedule sometime.

“WVUD is not everything to everyone, but we feel that it is SOMETHING to everyone.
