WCWM

I made a quick note about this station before, now I've listened to it some more and I'm even more impressed. The range of music they play is impressive. I've heard everything from Daft Punk to Stereolab to Dion (!) to a lot of stuff I've never heard before. It looks like each of the DJs have the ability to play what they want, their schedule has music from across the spectrum. You can also listen online! I'm doing that at home since the signal is so weak... What a combo, college radio and the internet! These are good times to be a music fan.

PS:

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the station that changed my music listening habits, WICB from Ithaca College. I went there from 89-94 and soaked up a lot of music from that station. They're still there of course, they've been there forever. It is also the classic college radio rock station. They don't have as many different programs as WCWM does, but they make up for it with an enormous catalog of college rock to play. They broadcast 24 hours a day if I'm not mistaken... Also, since it's being broadcast out of the Park School of Communications, the DJs aren't bad at all. That should be expected since it's mostly radio/TV majors manning it. Listen here.
