It felt natural to be behind that microphone. The problem is that KURE may be run and operated by students, but student support seems lacking. I don't really understand it. More request calls seem to come from high schoolers or the general public than the student body. It was great to know somebody was listening.
Awareness seems to be a problem.
If you mention KURE, the responses vary. Sadly, the last one is seldom heard by my ears. I tend to ask the people who dislike the station what their problem is, and most of them don't answer or have never listened to begin with. The University of Iowa supports their station, and it's a pretty good one, too. I tune in whenever I'm in Iowa City.
