WIIT

WIIT is a noncommercial, open-format radio station owned by the Illinois Institute of Technology and This allows us to represent diverse musical selections.

WIIT — the radio station for Illinois Institute of Technology — is one of the oldest continually operating radio stations in the country. Our completely student-run, noncommercial station is located in The McCormick Tribune Campus Center in the heart of Illinois Tech's Main Campus. WIIT offers a variety of programs, each with its own theme and genre. Our volunteer DJs are encouraged to express the

mselves creatively on air, through their music. This creativity differentiates WIIT from most closed-format radio stations. While carefully balancing professional attitudes with ingenuity, our DJs offer a fresh sound that doesn’t come off as forced or commercialized. Because our listeners know that we play our shows from the heart and not from the pocket, we have a very dedicated listenership. Additionally, since we are not a commercial station, our music selection is not governed by demographic research or a single restrictive theme. We increase our market share by offering material that goes beyond the Top 40 rotation. WIIT truly offers something for everyone.
