Experienced, to the max! All of you Dj’s and music enthusiasts out there. Let your name be heard. The Sac. State radio station, KSSU is a student-run radio station that provides students with experience, knowledge of the arts, and helps students build a reputation throughout the radio station industry.KSSU is dedicated to providing CSUS students with a radio-broadcasting learning experience. It is run entirely by CSUS students. The radio station’s main goals are to improve campus community involvement and awareness through the broadcasting of information on campus news and events, to provide air-time to involved Dj's to express their ideas and views, and to provide an outlet for alternative and culturally diverse musical formats not readably available in Sacramento.  KSSU participates in many social activities where they set up a table, their large speakers, DJ equipment, and just blast away. Some activities include Homecoming week, Homecoming Rally, and the KSSU tailgate party. As you can tell, KSSU knows where the party’s at.
