“It [KJHK] has been the most rewarding part of being at KU and has given me the opportunity to meet lifelong friends.”

- Music Director Gracie Hughes

KJHK volunteer staffs have worked tirelessly over the past year. Music staff goes through over 300 albums each month to find the freshest finds for KJHK listeners. Street Team has worked to identify local non-profits that need additional support to create a bigger connection within the Lawrence community. Sports staff has seen an increase in volunteers from 12 in the spring to 44 in the fall. Content Staff has made an increase from 8 articles in the Spring to 20 articles this fall with a large increase in social media presence leading to more engagement with KU students and the Lawrence community. The students of KJHK are passionate about their work and it truly shows. Don’t forget to keep your dials locked to KJHK 90.7 FM Lawrence.

“I love KJHK, because it has enabled me to connect with so many amazing people and have unforgettable experiences. KJHK is the best thing I’ve been a part of at KU, and I’ll always keep it locked!”
