WMPG empowers the University of Southern Maine students and the community to get involved with the radio station located at 92 Bedford Street on the University of Southern Maine’s Portland campus.
We welcome students who have work study, are looking for an internship, or want to work for department funds. Are you interested in running your own show or podcast?
We are always looking for volunteers for on air shows, podcasts, audio engineering and dj-ing or hosting a show! Listen on our app or at 90.9 GM. To learn more information check out our website or contact the station manager Jim Rand at stationmanager@wmpg.org.
