Engaging with the community’s interests in art and cultural affairs, by providing current information on activities and accomplishments. 5. Generating sustainable funding to maintain current operating needs as well to as position the station for future growth. WBAA strives to operate in an environment that cultivates this mission by: 1. Seeking continuous improvement in everything we do. 2. Hiring and retaining the highest quality staff and empowering them to perform to the fullest extent of their capabilities. 3. Respecting, utilizing and promoting the diversity that lies within Purdue University and our listening audience. 4.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

All in all, it’s a good thing for the area because it’ll bring more people. ... But for the local businesses that are already here it’ll be hard.” The initial social media reaction to reports of Jake’s closure was nega- tive, with one alumna feeling that JULIET JIMENEZ | GRAPHICS EDITOR See JAKE’S | Page 4 PUPD advises ME professor says he was pressured to patience during funk Asian students after investigation move-in week BY RYAN CHEN BY CREIGHTON SUTER he reviewed.
