Black Squirrel Radio is an online radio station run by students of Kent State University. Previously known as WKSR, the station's name was changed in 2005 due to a legal conflict with WKSR-FM, the broadcast station using the same call letters [1]. Black Squirrel Radio is overseen by faculty from Kent State University's Journalism and Mass Communication program. Since the name change, Black Squirrel Radio has been expanding the breadth of their content to include podcasting and talk radio shows in addition to music shows. While currently broadcasting primarily in online form, faculty directors of Black Squirrel Radio hope to eventually obtain an FM broadcasting frequency. So far this has been impossible due to saturation of the Akron/Cleveland Radio Market[2].

Black Squirrel Radio's lineage can be traced to the 1930s and the Radio Workshop in the School of Speech at Kent State University [3].

Format

Mainly Urban, Rock and Local Music. BSR is a freeform station, with shows rotating in two-hour blocks from 8 am to midnight every day.

BSR's mascot, Url the Squirrel, is named for the stations format (Urban Rock Local).

News

BSR is an affiliate of UWIRE,[4] which gathers, edits, and re-distributes student-created content,[5] and broadcasts news at 15 minutes before the hour and at 15 minutes past the hour.
