The organizers of the annual World College Radio Day event are announcing their 2024 Spirit of College Radio Awards winners.
The Spirit of College Radio Awards are presented by the College Radio Foundation in recognition of truly outstanding and spirited efforts made by college radio stations on World College Radio Day, which occurred on October 4 this year.

Commenting on the winners, Dr. Rob Quicke, Founder of College Radio Day, said: “We congratulate all these stations for their brilliant efforts. This year our theme for the day was The Soundtrack of Democracy and many stations did 24 hours of extraordinary events and programming about this theme. Well done to all the stations who have won this award!”
