Station Information

WBGU 88.1 FM is a non-commercial radio station located on the campus of Bowling Green State University in northwest Ohio. WBGU-FM is a student run radio station that focuses on independent, underground, and under-represented music and is dedicated to connecting with the surrounding communities.

Broadcasting at 1,000 watts, WBGU-FM offers people in northwest Ohio the opportunity to hear truly alternative music new and old. Our programming schedule ranges from indie rock to punk, metal, electronic, industrial, gothic, experimental, jazz, hip-hop, world, folk, blues, latin, and more. Our DJs range from college students to professors to community members who simply love music. Each DJ is a wealth of information, sharing facts and interesting tidbits about the music they play and the artists they enjoy.

Helping bring great performers to Bowling Green is a main goal of WBGU-FM. Working with local clubs and Bowling Green State University, WBGU-FM obtains many nationally recognized and critically acclaimed artists to perform in Bowling Green. In addition WBGU works with campus and community groups to spread the word about local events and activities.

Providing alternative media, local sports, and news programming, and great music, WBGU-FM is on the air 24 hours a day, 7 days a week each and every academic year, as well as each summer. The strength of WBGU-FM is the diversity and the commitment of each and everyone of our volunteer workers.

We hope that each listener discovers something new when tuning into WBGU-FM and will tune in again and again.
