WHO WE ARE

KZSU is a non-commercial, volunteer-staffed college radio staiton

broadcasting at 90.1 FM and online at kzsulive.stanford.edu. As a college

radio station, we offer an alternative to mainstream commercial radio.

MUSIC

We currently have about 100,000 records and CDs in our music

library. KZSU staff members listen to new music and identify great,

undiscovered bands. KZSU DJs can play just about whatever they want

(within reason, of course) and are often trendsetters, playing new bands

long before they hit it big. KZSU also hosts local bands on a live music

show, Wednesday Night Live, which has featured bands like Green Day and

the Donnas long before they made it big.

We also throw an annual hip-hop concert, an annual dance/electronic party

(last year's party featured SF DJ Josh Gabriel of the Gabriel and Dresden

production team), and put on shows at the Stanford Coffee House (featuring

acts including the Microphones, the Agenda, the Jim Yoshii Pile-up, Little

Wings, and Bosco & Jorge).

NEWS

The News Department produces a twenty minute daily news update and a

weekly news magazine combining local and global news, campus feature

stories, and commentary. News staffers gain hands-on experience

researching, writing, and reporting the news. KZSU's direct connection

with the campus community gives us access to the world's expert in a wide

variety of fields. We serve as a source for deeper coverage of campus,

national, and world events.

SPORTS

What better way to get close to the action than by broadcasting Stanford

sports on the radio? KZSU broadcasts 8 Stanford sports: football, men's

and women's basketball, baseball, softball, men's and women's soccer, and

women's volleyball. Stanford fans and alumni from the world over tune

into our broadcasts. We also have a weekly sports talk show, the

SportsZoo, open to anyone interesting in coming down and joining the

fray. Alumni of the KZSU Sports Department include ESPN Dream Job

contestant Aaron Levine, San Francisco Giants broadcaster Dave Flemming,

and professional baseball announcers Chad Goldberg and Toby Hyde.

OTHER OPPORTUNITIES

KZSU Radio is in constant need of clever hands and creative minds (and

vice-versa). In addition to DJ, news, and sports positions, we have

volunteer opportunities available for engineering, public affairs,

promotions, live music, and graphic design. No experience necessary.
