WVCW

Friends,

Did you wake up today?

I did.

I woke up with a most terrible feeling. Having donned my most winter worthy clothery, I exited my dwellings to enter a world of drudgery. People mindlessly shuffling from corner to corner, engaged in only their own curses without so much a cursory glance at the people beside them. The air was sad, the sky dark and the vibrations at an all time low.
Refusing to accept them, I charged over to my local congressperson and I declared, “You! Overpriced political stooge, to what do I owe this most abominable consternation?” To which, this ungendered servant of the people responded,

“lo, it is a most dark day. VCU students have returned to school, after a seemingly endless break. But heed the content of my admonition – do not give into despair and hopelessness. There is a silver lining, a cushion for this most terrible of pins.”

“Damn it, gender-specific title! Speak, tell me quickly what this secret is before I descend into naught more but pain and anguish!” I would below, my fear overcoming years of excellent breeding.

And then he told me. He told me a most marvelous tale, of brand new original content delivered for free to all willing persons. He told me of a radio station, right here at VCU, that was accepting of transfer students and new students and old students and grad students and anything else that just makes sense! Each day, new shows! Each week, new downloads! Each hour – special.

And then I woke up. I was sad for a while, but then I realized how meta is was that I had just dreamed a dream. I looked out the window, and the weather was the same.

I put on the same winter wear, and had the same terrible feelings.

But there were no genderless congresspersons. In fact, in this terrible reality, everyone had a gender. And it was time for school.

But you know what else was right about that dream?

From now until May, WVCW is going to be hitting you with so much free, original student driven content your face will explode like that alien – from that movie, Alien.

We will even give you free stuff, like cups and tote bags and wristbands and most of all – our love.

Keep an eye (and an ear) out for WVCW this semester, as we bring you new shows and events. Our schedule will be updating for the next week or so, but the podcasts are always available.

And try to make the best out of this first day of the new semester.
