The “Worldwide Swarthmore Radio Network” is Swarthmore College’s official campus radio station. It broadcasts out of the suburban Philadelphia borough of Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.
Prior to the 1970s, WSRN operated as a carrier signal broadcast to the campus of Swarthmore College only. The station went on the air with 10 watts on October 15, 1972. Following efforts by the Federal Communications Commission to encourage as many Class D stations as possible to increase power, a campaign was raised by the students of the college, and in the late 1970s, the FCC granted a license for a 110-watt, directional, transmission.
Programming has been eclectic from the 1970s on. Station programming is diverse; music spans “world,” hip hop, blues, folk, rock, pop, R & B, and classical. Talk and comedy programs comprise much of the weekend line-up. Notably “Funk” which ran from fall 2012 to spring 2014 Friday mornings from midnight to 2AM.
In 1986, the main on-air studio was completely refurbished, with a new control panel, turntables, microphones, and wiring installed. 1998 saw the rewiring and modernization of the production studio and the construction of an acoustically isolated sound studio connected to the production studio.
Students have always manned the soundboard, and so, during most summers, the station is dark. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the radio station had periods of limited broadcasting. During the 2021-2022 academic year, a significant effort by students, faculty, staff, and community members was successfully carried out to get the station back up to an operational state. As of April 1, 2022, the station has resumed broadcasting.
In academia, a “fellowship” is a type of academic or professional award or grant that provides financial support to individuals to pursue a specific area of research or study. Fellowships are typically awarded to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and scholars who have completed their doctoral degrees, and they are often highly competitive and prestigious. Fellowships may be sponsored by a variety of organizations, including government agencies, non-profit organizations, and private foundations, and they may be focused on a wide range of topics, including science, engineering, humanities, social sciences, and the arts. Some fellowships may provide funding for a specific research project, while others may support a scholar’s ongoing research or professional development.
In addition to providing financial support, fellowships may also offer other benefits, such as access to specialized resources or facilities, networking opportunities, and mentorship or professional development programs. Fellowships are often highly valued by scholars and researchers, as they provide support and recognition for their work and help to advance their careers in academia or other fields.
The deadline for the 2023 National Institute of Standards and Technology Summer Undergraduate Fellowship Program varies from year to year, and it typically falls in the early months of the year. For example, for the 2022 NIST Summer Undergraduate Fellowship Program, the application period opened on November 22, 2021, and the deadline for submitting applications was February 15, 2022.

Graffiti on building and structures is an ongoing and increasing problem. A number of coatings have been produced that are intended to be resistant to the application of a graffiti marking, or to provide a surface from which such markings can be easily removed.
