KDVS is:
* non-commercial = you'll never hear ads, only sponsorships and PSAs from local organizations
* non-profit = any extra money we make goes back into next year's budget
* student/volunteer-run = none of our DJs get paid, and only a handful of student managers get paid a tiny stipend; we do it for the love of radio!
* educational = it's in our mission statement to play new and undergroun
d music and cover under-represented topics to educate both our DJs and our listeners, avoiding artists who are already in the mainstream
* freeform = besides the mainstream rule, DJs have the freedom to play whatever artist, whatever genre, whatever! (within FCC guidelines of course)
* college/community = we're licensed to UC Davis, but you don't have to be a student to volunteer; everyone from the community is welcome
* terrestrial/internet = with a 9,200-watt tower, we broadcast all over Davis and Sacramento, and from Fairfield to the foothills; worldwide online!
