Summer's here

Hello from cloudy, rainy Evanston!

NURD would first like to congratulate all the seniors and graduate students who are graduating this week. Congrats guys and gals!

Secondly, if you missed our show on Sunday, you didn't miss us at all. WNUR has switched to its summer schedule so we're not on the air anymore, but don't you fret . . . NURD will be having summer blog-exclusive shows that you can download only right here!

Thanks for another great year and special congrats to outgoing Executive Director Luke Adams, outgoing Assistant Executive Director Brad West, and outgoing WNUR General Manager Doug Kaplan!

The finals game will be broadcast on 89.3 WNUR FM Evanston/Chicago tomorrow during our normal NURD broadcast, so we will not be having a show. Good Luck Wildcats!

NURD Revitalization!

So, NURD has been a bit dysfunctional the past few years, but we are on a mission to become the best NURD has ever been. We are trying to work around WNUR's website problems with this blog, where hopefully we can post our show recordings and then have a podcast, post updates, advertise auditions and petitions, etc.

Go NURD!
