WFTU-AM is a college radio station on Long Island operated by Five Towns College in Dix Hills, New York. The station is broadcasted from the campus in Dix Hills and is then transmitted in Riverhead, New York. The station is also streaming on the internet from its website, www.wfturadio.com.
Much of WFTU's programming is produced by current students and faculty of Five Towns College. The station is also operated by a student management staff under the guidance of the General Manager, a staff professor.
In late 2006, the station began showcasing the student and staff musicians through a weekly impromptu performance outside the station or at the college's cafeteria. WFTU also broadcasts nightly live music performances in the Dix Hills Center for the Performing Arts and the other performance venues on the college campus.
