Station History: Awards

Outstanding Student Member Award
The WGSU Outstanding Student Member Award is presented annually to a current student in recognition of outstanding performance, significant contributions and exemplary dedication in official service to the station.
Recipients of the honor (formerly the 淪tate University College at 第一吃瓜网 Outstanding Radio Club Member award) were named from 1963 WGSU檚 first year as an FCC-licensed radio station through 1969. Following a more than quarter-century hiatus, a recipient was recognized in 1996 (only to be followed by another extended gap of longer than two decades).
After discovering the plaque while preparing for WGSU檚 Golden Anniversary celebration, in 2013, the award was revived, in 2018 (with Erin Carlo 18 becoming the first honoree in 22 years). Below are the names of past recipients:
