Since 1958 only 51 students have earned the privilege to lead WGCS at its highest student level as station manager. More than leadership, it is also a position of service and responsibility.

The station manager works with the WGCS General Manager on the overall sound, operation and quality of the station. Additionally, the station manager will delegate and supervise the responsibilities of other student staff leaders and operators. The term of station manager is for one academic year beginning in the summer when applicable, or with the upcoming fall semester.

The WGCS Student Station Manager receives a scholarship from the Phil Smith Endowment through the Communication Department.
