***Frequently Asked Questions***
Who the FAQ is WECB?
On paper WECB is Emerson’s freeform radio station. What this means is that we have a studio and we broadcast student-run radio shows from 9am-12am seven days a week. These shows stream online on our website at www.wecb.live .
But we’re also so much more than just a radio station! We are a completely student-run organization comprised of a range of teams, including Events, Marketing, Audio Production, and Music Staff, in addition to the DJs that make up the programming of our station.
What does each team do?
WECB Live!
"WECB Live" is our events team. This team hosts events for Emerson musicians such as open mics, showcases, and hires national touring bands to perform at Emerson. This team is also in charge of renting out gear to student musicians.

Milk Crate
Our Milk Crate team is dedicated to sharing news and content about the current music scene and culture. They curate our music blog, Milk Crate, with content such as album and concert reviews, host the Staff Pix radio show, create a relevant Zine each semester, and meet weekly to discuss upcoming projects and events.
