WAIC


WAIC is the college radio station of American International College in Springfield, Massachusetts. It is operated by the Five College Consortium's National Public Radio member station, WFCR, and serves as a relay of the all-news format airing on WFCR's sister station, WNNZ.

History

WAIC first went on air in February 1967, going stereo in 1985. Initially programmed from American International College. In the 1970s WAIC was a local favorite alternative to Top 40 programming, well known for disco, funk, and progressive rock. For some reason, AIC abandoned the station so it became a 24/7 relay of Connecticut Public Radio on November 1, 2011. On July 1, 2016, it began relaying WNNZ.
