KANM (radio station)

KANM Student Radio, "the College station of College Station," is the Student radio station at Texas A&M University. It operates on the Texas A&M campus cable television system at channel 2.2, and through an online stream and downloads. Like some other college radio stations, KANM's DJs program their own shows, playing music encompassing virtually any genre, from "indie rock and indie pop, alternative, electronic, emo, punk, hip-hop, metal, jazz, and much, much more"
KANM was founded in 1972 and is a recognized student organization at Texas A&M, one of the top ten largest universities in the U.S. with over 10,000 on-campus resident students. In the most recent month of SHOUTcast data (September 2008), KANM was one of the top college radio streams and among the top Internet streams in general, with nearly 500,000 stream connections. The station's web site claims that, at over 35 years old, it is likely the oldest surviving cable FM station in the country to have never transitioned to licensed over-the-air operation. More recently, a campus cable television channel and downloads have also been added.<ref name"KANM"/><ref name"KANM About"/>
