the exec board.
As the governing body of WIIT 88.9FM, the executive board plays a critical role in ensuring the success of the college radio station. They provide strategic direction and oversee the station’s operations, including budgeting, planning, programming, and marketing.
The board works collaboratively with the station’s staff, volunteers, and campus community to maintain a high level of professionalism, creativity, and engagement. Ultimately, the board’s objective should be to uphold WIIT’s mission of providing a platform for independent voices and alternative music while serving as a valuable resource for the campus and the community.

Cole Kincart
He is currently the station manager at WIIT and is a second-year student studying architectural engineering. Cole is constantly on the lookout for new sounds, collecting new vinyl, and taking every chance he can get to attend a concert. Although Cole won’t admit it, he does spend a large chunk of time reading Pitchfork and lurking in online music communities. Yes…he’s a Pitchfork snob. Unfortunately, the pain of Daft Punk’s breakup still haunts for Cole every single day, but he’s an self-proclaimed expert in Frank Ocean’s lore and calls himself a true “Frank”ophile. If you’re a music lover or want to chat about Frank Ocean theories, feel free to reach out to him!
