Welcome to WDCE

Student-run and operated since 1960, WDCE has been the voice of independent radio in Richmond. WDCE is affiliated with and located at University of Richmond in Richmond, Virginia.

Students have used it as a launching pad to careers in radio or other mass communications as well as a fun extra-curricular activity. Non-students have also played an important role in broadcasting continuity and diversity.

Over the years, WDCE has brought many concerts to the campus including DC punk legends Fugazi, indie favorites Death Cab For Cutie, and hip-hop veteran Masta Ace.

WDCE was located in the Tyler Haynes Commons since its first broadcast, but was recently relocated and renovated to the North Court basement.

Alumni and former DJ's are encouraged to drop us a line on Facebook to reminisce about the good times they had at WDCE, so interested students and new DJ's can hear how great it can be to be involved with college radio!

Spring/Summer

As we approach the end of the school year, now is an excellent time for people interested to get involved. Students that live or will be staying locally may have an opportunity to try new or different time slots. Non-Students may also get a chance to experiment with different styles of music or fill-in for a student DJ.

Mission Of Burma concert

WDCE Presents Mission of Burma:

WDCE is proud to be bringing seminal Boston post-punk ensemble Mission of Burma to the University of Richmond campus on Friday, February 19, 2010.  The concert will be at the Pier, located within Tyler Haynes Commons (the building spanning Westhampton Lake). 

"Mission of Burma are playing as well as ever on The Sound the Speed the Light; Peter Prescott's drumming manages to be both inventive and relentless, giving the music a solid root even as he pushes the songs forward, while Clint Conley's bass is a perfect foil, both agile and commanding, and Roger Miller's guitar stubbornly and joyously defies any and all clichés pertaining to lead guitar in rock & roll." - Mark Deming, All Music Guide

The event will be FREE for University of Richmond students and just $15 in advance for the general public.  Advance tickets will be available at Plan 9 Music in Carytown beginning January 25, 2010.
