Not the poster. Well, the poster up there is beautiful, yes, but what's even more beautiful than "WUVT" freshly shaved into a leg is Fall Radiothon. The Greatest Week In Radio is upon us once more! Starting next week, from October 30th through November 5th, we'll have a full week of 24/7 live, themed shows to bring you endless hours (okay, 168 hours, but who's counting?) of sonic satisfaction. Our DJs are prepping quite hard and the staff is working overtime to make sure it all goes off without a hitch.
This semester's Radiothon has a goal to raise $20,000, so be sure to donate to help us meet this goal! This Radiothon is part of a larger effort to raise a grand total of $70,000 to overhaul and rework our studio and station audio infrastructure so that we can keep bringing you the best music you can find in the New River Valley. Your dollars will get you both some super cool premiums and help contribute to our greater project for your best listening experience possible.
We'll have more updates for you - including a list of premiums, program guide, daily updates, and remotes - throughout the rest of the week. You can follow along here on our website as well as our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts to stay on top of the goings on. Of course, you can also tune in to our on-air programming on the radio dial or your favorite Internet browser.
Thank you from all of us here at WUVT, and be sure to donate and support the Greatest Radio Station in the World!
Welcome back to the new semester! WUVT has begun our fall schedule, and it's full of something for everyone, from Americana to rock to jazz to metal and everything outside and in-between. Everyone here at the station is excited to be back and bring you another year of great music.
I'd also like to point out that have a new section on our website. You'll see we now list our currently running PSAs on the sidebar under the Community section, located here. So if you hear something interesting on-air but can't quite catch all the details, we'll list them here on the site for you with links, emails, and all.
Radiothon premiums have (finally) arrived at the station, and distribution begins today, June 12 at the WUVT studios in 350 Squires Student Center. If you have requested shipping for your items, you can expect them to be shipped within two weeks.

Radiothon is over! A big thank-you goes out to everyone who donated or pledged during the past week; our total in pledges is a whopping $13,899.40! If you donated, Premiums will be shipped out in the next 2 or 3 weeks, and will be ready for pick-up shortly thereafter. If you pledged, remember that you must pay your pledge before you can pick up your premiums!
Just because Radiothon is over doesn't mean you can't continue to support WUVT all year round; coming out to events, and setting up monthly recurring donations are just two ways you can help keep the lights on until next Radiothon!
The end of Radiothon draws inexorably closer, and we still have yet to make our goal! Call in or hit donate now to make your pledge! We've made $11,180 thus far, and each dollar you send us puts us closer to our $15,000 goal.
