WCUG Cougar Radio is a student led and community driven radio station housed in the Department of Communication at Columbus State University (CSU) in Columbus, Ga. Since 2015, WCUG Cougar Radio (now written as WCUG) created a learning lab environment, focused on training the next generation of media creators and managers. WCUG also houses and manages a podcast network that hosts a majority of WCUG’s digital content. Importantly, WCUG is operated by our very own CSU students. These students hold different tiers and positions as personnel, whether paid or volunteers. WCUG is also advised by a Faculty Advisor from the Department of Communication and the Department Chair for the Department of Communication.
