University of Toronto Community Radio Inc.
Registered as a charitable organization[^1] (Business Number: 105459325RR0001), University of Toronto Community Radio Inc. operates CIUT-FM, a campus and community radio station broadcasting at 89.5 MHz FM from Toronto, Ontario. The station, established in 1987[^2], serves as an alternative media outlet with programming focused on cultural diversity, local arts, and underrepresented voices[^3][^4].
History
CIUT’s origins trace to 1965, when students launched a closed-circuit station at the University of Toronto[^5]. Early programming aired through partnerships with CJRT-FM and CHUM-FM[^5]. After a 1976 CRTC license application rejection, a 1986 proposal succeeded, and CIUT-FM began full FM broadcasting in January 1987 at 15,000 watts[^4][^5]. Its antenna remains atop First Canadian Place in Toronto’s Financial District[^2].
Programming
The station features music, talk, and news programming curated by volunteers and staff, emphasizing genres and topics often excluded from commercial radio[^1][^3]. It also broadcasts Sur Sagar Radio, a Punjabi- and Urdu-language service via Subsidiary Communications Multiplex Operation[^2].
Operations
Funded by listener donations and a student levy[^2], CIUT-FM operates under a nonprofit model with governance by a board of directors[^1]. Its studios are located on the University of Toronto’s St. George campus[^4].
