About

Blugold Media is home to University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire student media and supported by the Department of Communication and Journalism.

Student journalists produce radio programming weekly in collaboration with Wisconsin Public Radio for Blugold Radio Sunday, found online and heard on the dial at FM 89.7.

They also cover the campus for the nearly 100-year-old student newspaper, The Spectator. The Spectator is published online. A print edition is published biweekly.

Both Blugold Radio Sunday and The Spectator are independent student organizations, funded in part by student fees.

Journalism students enrolled in the capstone course, Digital Newsroom, and other journalism courses produce Inside Eau Claire which covers the local community and surrounding areas. A journalism faculty member serves as publisher, but students are responsible for every aspect of the news site from generating story ideas to creating and producing all content.
