SUMMARY:Show Your Support for College Radio by Donating to the WRUW Annual 
 Telethon
DESCRIPTION:\nMon 3/23-Sun 3/29\nThe outcry and blowback against heartless 
 demolition of Cleveland State University’s nearly 50-year-old radio stat
 ion WCSB-FM last October made it clear how much Clevelanders value college
  radio. And\, as that outcry made clear\, much of its support — listener
 ship and financial — comes from the community.\nCase Western Reserve Uni
 versity’s WRUW-FM 91.1 is the oldest of Northeast Ohio’s existing coll
 ege radio station\, emerging from a strictly campus station to become a lo
 w-power FM in 1967. It now broadcasts at 15\,000 watts and can be heard ac
 ross northern Ohio and even into Michigan and Canada\, as well as online\,
  playing a radically diverse range of music (“more music\, fewer hits”
 ) not heard on commercial radio\, along with public service programs such 
 as “Gaywaves” and “It’s About Justice” — just as WCSB did.\nTh
 is week\, WRUW launched its annual Telethon fundraiser\, running from Mond
 ay March 23 through Sunday March 29. It’s a time when you can step up an
 d donate during your favorite program to show your support for your favori
 te host — or just donate.\n“In 2025\, listener donations made it possi
 ble for us to purchase a new radio transmitter\, reel-to-reel machine\, tw
 o new digitizing robots\, and live broadcast equipment\,” they share. 
 “This year\, we are focusing on raising money to cover the cost of insta
 llation of the new transmitter and supporting technology. This investment 
 in our signal will improve sound quality\, prevent drop outs\, and fix oth
 er technical issues\, giving our audience the best listening experience po
 ssible.”\nIt is a really critical time to show support for college radio
 . Call 216.368.2208 or go online to telethon.wruw.org to donate and show 
 how much college radio means to northeast Ohio.
