Students get professional training at Fredonia's student-run media operations:

Fredonia Radio Systems

Two radio stations are based at Fredonia: WCVF 88.9 FM, "The Voice," and WDVL 89.5, "The Inferno." WCVF reaches northern Chautauqua County, with roughly 40,000 listeners. This student-run station airs a news show Monday through Friday from 6 to 6:30 p.m. Because WCVF is noncommercial, it has no specific format, so student disc jockeys can be more flexible in the music they play. WDVL is also student-run and staffed; however, it is a commercial station that follows a Top 40 format. WCVF's evening newscast is simulcast on WDVL. At both stations, students learn how to use the equipment properly and follow operational guidelines.  For more information, visit http://www.fredoniaradio.com

WNYF

At this student-run television station, students learn all aspects of running a TV station, including production, programming, and management. Students produce a regular news show, a late-night talk show, regular hockey and basketball broadcasts, and many other student productions. All students involved in the TV station have total 24/7 access to the facility. The station's equipment is state-of-the-art, with three Sony HD studio cameras and a control room, two Avid and Adobe Premiere Macintosh editing suites, and field cameras with support equipment.
