“Roots” music is music that is considered to be American either because it is native to our country or because it was developed here. Rock and Roll, Rhythm and Blues, and Jazz define the American Experience, and WUSM defines Roots Radio.

WUSM FM-88.5  is a  non-commercial radio station offering USM students  hands on and  ”on-the-air” experience in the exciting field of radio broadcasting.  All WUSM programming can be heard online at southermissradio.com.

WUSM exists through the generosity of our listeners. Our support ranges from a $25 peryear Student level to the $2,500 Mighty Oak membership and beyond. With ever-changing equipment needs and budget limitations, every dollar we receive is put to work at WUSM. Our staff is creative… actually downright ingenious at stretching a dollar but our needs still exceed our means. If you like the music, please help the program any way you can through members sponsorships or underwriting our programming.
