Radio Laurier

 

Radio Laurier is the official campus and community radio station of Wilfrid Laurier University.

Though relaunched in January 2010, Radio Laurier has existed in other forms previously, joining WLUSP in May 2009 and began revamping its structure and programming to become a professional campus radio station.

Radio Laurier
is a member of the National Campus and Community Radio Association (NCRA), a collective of over 70 stations across Canada.

Note from the Station Manager

Having only been kicked off the airwaves twice so far, at Radio Laurier a crew of decorated veterans of this hell school stare down the 2026 media job market By bravely broadcasting live about Sports, Music, Life, and reality TV at RadioLaurier.com.  For these heroics they’ve been rewarded with being allowed to keep their official IG while Mark Zuckerberg takes an iron mattock to the rest of Canadian Media (google Bill C-18 and then delete your whatsapp).  Nate Dawes is the subterranean salamander-person charged with taking the fall if someone compares Jordan Peterson to Hitler and someone cries about it.  They enjoy booking meetings about meetings, writing check-in emails, filling out quarterly reviews, and being punched in the face at hardcore shows.
