WRCT Budget
FY2012 (July 1 2011 - June 30, 2012)
WRCT is Carnegie Mellon's radio station, broadcasting to all of the Pittsburgh area on 88.3fm and to the world via our streams on http://www.wrct.org/. Our mission is to provide locally-produced content of interest to the Carnegie Mellon and Pittsburgh communities that cannot be heard anywhere else, exposing listeners to music and talk we feel is underrepresented. At the same time, we provide an entirely student-run environment for our members to teach and to learn everything related to radio.
