Entertainment/Media - , N/A, US
We're a small college radio station directly affiliated with Brandeis University (who holds the FCC license and hosts our facilities) in the suburbs of Boston, Massachusetts. Specifically, our City of License (COL) is Waltham...it's about 8 miles due west of downtown. As such, our mandate is to provide programming that serves Waltham and serves the Brandeis student community. We broadcast at 100.1 MegaHertz in the FM (Frequency Modulation) band, which runs from 88.1 MHz to 107.9 MHz. WBRS has a "Class D FM FCC License", which is a non-commercial license. Even though we're in the "commercial band" from 92.1 to 107.9 MHz, our license dictates we provide a non-commercial, educational service (NCE). Read below for more info about Class D licenses. The call letters are a shortening of "BRandeiS", or stand for "Brandeis Radio Service" or "Brandeis Radio System" (depending on who you ask). Most of our staff is Brandeis students, but there are Brandeis staff & alumni as well as several community volunteers with no connection to Brandeis other than that they're good DJ's and volunteer at the station. There are no regular paid positions at the station; everyone's a volunteer. Most of our Executive Board that runs the station is students as well - it's a good learning experience!
