Thank you
Summer updates from hot & humid Brunswick, Maine
It’s hard to believe that already three months have passed since WBOR’s Reunion in June.
We had over 300 alumni stop by to pay homage to the studio, reconnect with friends, and share priceless stories about their relationship with the station. Throughout the afternoon, DJs took back to the airwaves curating a beautifully eclectic mix of music that drew online listeners in from across the world:
Thank you to everyone who had the opportunity to stop by ❤️
If you didn’t have a chance to tune in, or would like a copy of the 5-hour recording, please reach out.
Relocation Updates
Announced in May, the final days of Dudley Coe are upon us. As mentioned, the station will be relocating to the first floor of Coles tower in Spring 2025. Over the summer, demolition and renovations have taken place to prepare the studio. Shelves have begun to go up for our physical media, and new OneCard readers have been installed as of this past week. We look forward to designing this new space over the course of the next semester, and ultimately, welcoming you in!

Afternoon Reading
Recent Williams College grad and fellow NESCAC radio manager Josh Picoult just put out an excellent senior thesis tracing the history of WCFM between 1940-98. I’d highly recommend giving it a read - there are numerous nuggets of history that appear to mirror WBORs own trajectory during that time frame. It really was a joy to read. If it conjures up any memories from you about WBOR, we’d love to hear them!
