(WFSU, WFSQ and WFSW are the others.) WVFS is often referred to as V89, "The Voice", or "The Voice of Florida State". WVFS broadcasts at 89.7 FM. The station is staffed by student and community volunteers. Featuring no automation, the DJ booth at WVFS is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year. New and different music is played to provide an alternative to commercial radio. Mission Statement and Station Philosophy Mission Statement WVFS's mission statement is as follows: "To provide diversity in programming to the Florida State campus and Tallahassee community while acting as a top-notch training facility for students and community members interested in gaining experience in radio station operations."[1] Station Philopsophy As a college radio station, WVFS aims to "provide an alternative to the commercially dominated world of radio, where the listener chooses if he or she loves or hates the music.".[2] In order to enact this philosophy, WVFS provides listeners with the opportunity to make requests 24 hours a day via the station's website, or by calling the station at (850)644-1837 to speak directly to the DJ on the air. WVFS also aims "to promote bands of quality-regardless of genre-that might not get airplay otherwise; to promote diversity and open-mindedness through music; to promote public awareness through information and public service announcements; to support the community that supports us; to provide an environment welcoming and tolerant of all who wish to participate." [3] Programming The programming schedule at WVFS is divided into three categories: Regular programming Regular programming time slots feature a combination of newly released material, music from the WVFS Catalog, and listener requests. Regular programming also occasionally features News, Weather, and Concert Updates, promotional announcements, and public service announcements (PSAs).
