[edit] Music and Programming
At the core of KSPB is its student run programming which airs from 6:00-8:00 AM and 3:30 to 11:00 PM on weekdays and 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM on weekends during the school year. Music programming is as diverse as the DJs, but tends to stay hip and contemporary. When student programming is not available, the station rotates broadcasting from the BBC World Service.
