Twice a year a hand-picked group of applicants enter a semester long training program here at KMNR. You’ve heard them goof up on the radio, seen their faces working hard at roadshows, and they also helped make Freaker’s Ball the insane event that it was. Now, after paying their dues, they will become official licensed radio DJs and be welcomed into the increasingly dysfunctional KMNR family. We can’t wait to see what they have in store for the station.

Today, we celebrate their hard work with the KMNR Trainee Banquet.

A Little Touch Up

I’ve put a little make up on our playlists feature. We now show cover art for some the entries in the playlist. In addition, I’ve added some buttons to share the playlist on Facebook and Twitter.

The cover art has been added to the charts section as well. It looks pretty nifty. If you haven’t checked out our charts, you should. We put charts up every Sunday when school is in session.

Lastly, we want to give a little shout out to our friends at Cornell College. KRNL, their student run station, dropped us a line to find out about some of the technologies we use on kmnr.org. Plus, they use 89.7FM too!

Happy hump day! You never know what you’re gonna hear on 89.7 FM; That’s the beauty of free format, college radio!
