We expected to retain the WCSU call letters but needed to submit 5 choices to the FCC in our application. WCSU was first, second WMLF (Station Manager Michael Flaster&#8217;s initials), third WCJL (for Corey Leibow, the Program Director&#8217;s initials), fourth, WRTC (the Chief Engineer, Dick Crozier&#8217;s initials) and finally, as a joke, WSUC. As luck would have it, the first four call-letters were already assigned. Good thing the FCC had a sense of humor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-small-font-size\">WSUC officially went on the air on November 29th, 1976. Originally the station was given 90.7 FM. It wasn&#8217;t until later that the station would migrate to it&#8217;s current address at 90.5 FM. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background-color:#000000;padding-left:8%;padding-right:8%;padding-bottom:1.5%;padding-top:1.5%\" class=\"wp-block-atomic-blocks-ab-container ab-block-container alignfull\"><div class=\"ab-container-inside\"><div class=\"ab-container-content\" style=\"max-width:1200px\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading bold-text fade-in-up\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-right has-text-color\" style=\"color:#e8e8e8\">The First Crew<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-white-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\"><strong>Above is a picture of WSUC-FM&#8217;s first management team: From left to right: Michael Flaster, Station Manager, two unknown Announcers, Rob Silber, Music Director, Dave Frisina, Announcer, Amy Dahlman, Announcer, Ron Palandrani, News Director, Candy Altman and, seated, Program Director, Corey Leibow.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-text-color has-small-font-size\" style=\"color:#fefefe\">WSUC officially went on the air on November 29th, 1976.
