CHUO is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 89.1 FM in Ottawa. It is the campus radio station of the University of Ottawa.
The station began broadcasting in 1984 on cable FM and closed circuit in the university's student residences. It was subsequently awarded a broadcast license by the CRTC, and began broadcasting on FM on May 31, 1991. The station is bilingual, broadcasting in both English and French.
Tom Green hosted a late-night program on the station for several years in the mid-1990s before moving to television with Rogers Cable's Ottawa community channel. Quddus, an MTV VJ, was also associated with the station in the late 1990s.
The station's studios were formerly located in a walkway linking the university's Morriset Library with the Thompson student residence. In September, 2005 the station moved to new facilities in the basement of the library building.
Currently, the station manager is Erin Flynn, and the program director is Pierre Petiote.
