After an extremely fun and exhausting weekend at the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System Student Media conference in New York, we are unbelievable proud to announce we won, not one, but two IBS awards! Those being: 2024 Best Streaming/Online Only Radio Station (More than 10,000 Students), and our very own station manager, Caitlyn Branine, won Best Student Station Manager.

We are unbelievable proud of these achievements and all the hard work Caitlyn, and the rest of our team has put in to be able to win these awards. As well as huge thanks to everyone who has a show. We wouldn’t have been able to win it without you guys.

But the train doesn’t stop there. Make sure to keep an eye out on everything UCCS Radio as we have a ton of new ideas and even more ways to cater and make our radio even better for all you Mountain Lions!
