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.

    WDCB Diversity Statement – updated September 2019 WDCB strives for diversity in all areas of operation, including staff, programming and community engagement activities. WDCB does not currently have its own Board of Directors, since it falls under the direction of the elected Board of Trustees of College of DuPage. WDCB is guided in its employment practices by its license holder, College of DuPage, an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer. “Consistent with federal and state law, the Board of Trustees will facilitate through the Affirmative Action Officer equal employment opportunities to all persons regardless of their race, color, religion or creed, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, sexual orientation, arrest record, military status or unfavorable discharge from military service, citizenship status, use of lawful products while not at work, physical or mental handicap or disability (if otherwise able to perform the essential functions of the job with reasonable accommodation), or other factors which cannot lawfully be the basis for an employment decision.” The term "employment opportunities" includes hiring, promotion, termination, wages, benefits, and all other privileges, terms, and conditions of employment. In accordance with federal law, the College will maintain a written Affirmative Action Program to implement and maintain the policy of equal opportunity through positive efforts. (Board Policy 15-5) Here is the college’s current Affirmative Action Plan: http://www.cod.edu/about/humanresources/pdf/affirmative.pdf WDCB’s staff is historically stable, with only one completely new full time position hired in the past five years, none in the past calendar year. WDCB currently employs 15 full-time and one part-time staff member.

And the lessons that Dillard learned from the late avant-gardist and AACM legend can't always be easily detected in his handsome mainstream sound. But when you're around an artist and educator of Abrams’ stature, you absorb more than you may think, whatever stylistic direction you choose. “He was a very quiet, humble cat,” said Dillard. “Sometimes, he could be very particular in pointing things out. At other times, he could be quite aloof. But whenever you were in his presence, you couldn’t help but be inspired to reach higher.” Having played with such stellar AACM ensembles as Nicole Mitchell’s Black Earth Ensemble, Ernest Dawkins’ Chicago 12 and the Kahil El’Zabar Quartet, Dillard is Foster James by Photo Justin Dillard. right at home with the AACM’s untethered, "roots to the future" approach.
