WKNC
88.1 FM today announced the launch of its newly designed website, wknc.org. This
effort is the first major overhaul of the website since 2007 and features a
modular, mobile-responsive design.
Along
with the new look is a new online WKNC history exhibit that follows the station
from its origins as WLAC-AM in 1922 to its present multi-media operation.
The
project, modeled after the University of Maryland Libraries’ “Saving College
Radio: WMUC Past Present and Future” digital exhibit, features images and
stories throughout the history of N.C. State student radio, including a listing
of each student general manager.
More
than 6,000 users visit WKNC.org each month and the online playlist is the most
viewed section of the website.
