What is KRNU: A Retrospective?

Since 1970, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's campus radio station, 90.3, KRNU has been giving students a voice.

In this series, we will take a deep-dive into each decade of KRNU’s existence and talk to faculty, students, and staff that have left their mark and kept KRNU running. From the groovy '70 until today, Lincoln’s new music alternative has been a place where students and up-and-coming artists can share their talents to the world.
