Wellesley College Celebrates 70 Years of College Radio on Campus | Radio Survivor.

“Not many college radio stations can lay claim to 70 years of broadcasting, so it’s exciting to hear that student radio has been a part of campus life at Wellesley College since 1942. The first station, WBS 730 AM, launched in 1942 and was apparently the first all-woman college radio station. Eventually that station evolved into FM station WZLY, which is on the air at 91.5 FM today. Take a look in the Wellesley College archives to see an amazing photo of the station from 1947.”
