WIUX Alumni Spotlight: Peter Goerner
I got to speak with WIUX alum
Peter Goerner a few weeks ago. Pe-
ter was a station manager at WIUX
back in the ‘80s. After coming on
board as a DJ in the fall of 1980, he
became station manager in 1981. As
a first year MBA student, Peter got
involved with WIUS after learning
about the station at the student in-
volvement fair. Peter had previous
radio experience from his time at
Notre Dame.
Peter’s role as station manag-
er allowed him the opportunity to
manage people and their issues,
experiences that helped him later
in life. We joked that capably man-
aging a bunch of rebellious hipsters
truly trains you for the real world.
I asked Peter what his fondest
WIUS memories were. He proceed-
ed to reminisce about the day Mike
Conway, then the News Director,
WIUX takes home IBS award
Each year at the Intercollegiate Broad-
casting System conference, an awards
ceremony is held to recognize high school
and college radio and television stations.
Awards are presented in a variety of cate-
gories (news, sports, production, etc.) and
achievements (“Best Show Promo”, “Best
Station Manager”, etc.).
We are proud to announce that WIUX
took home the IBS award for “Best Liner”.
Station Manager Sarah Thompson accept-
ed the award for the knock-knock style
liner, which was produced in conjunction
with former Music Director Tori Miner.
WIUX was also nominated in 12 other
categories.
Additionally, Thompson and General
Manger Carolyn Suna hosted their own
panel addressing the difficulties faced
while moving a radio station. During the
panel, the two WIUX managers spoke
on positive tactics for an efficient move
and building community in a post-move
environment.
This is the second consecutive
year WIUX has received IBS
awards. Last year, Pure Student
Radio won the award for “Best
News Interview” for the interview
with comedy troupe Whitest Kids
U’ Know, conducted by former
News Directors Christina Bernar-
din and Morgan Wooderson.
WIUX aims to continue this recent
string of success in subsequent
years, and hopes to continue to
provide high-quality, student-pro-
duced content.

WIUX nominations, please visit:

overheard Peter’s show. Conway came upstairs and
introduced himself to Peter, only a DJ at the time, and
commented on how professionally he’d conducted his
show.
Peter was drawn to WIUX for a lot of the same rea-
sons that students today are drawn to it: a desire to get
away from mainstream radio content. Only back then,
it was Brian Eno or the Police, not Courtney Barnett or
Kendrick Lamar. Decades later, WIUX still resonates on
the same wavelength we all broadcast on.

story? We’d love to hear it. Email WIUX PR Director Sam Velazquez at

In case you’d forgotten...
WIUX
with Union Board
present:
“It was a hell of a
lot of fun. I still punch
in 99.1 when I head
down to Blooming-
ton.” - Peter Goerner
Culture Shock is fast ap-
proaching. This year’s
edition of the annual music
festival is set to be perhaps
the best yet. Foxygen is one
of the biggest and brightest
names in indie rock. Twin
Peaks and TOPS are both on
their way up; they’re young,
hungry, and extremely tal-
ented. With a bevy of local
acts rounding out the line-
up, there’s every reason to
believe that Culture Shock
2015 will go down in WIUX
history as a momentous oc-
casion. So only one question
remains:
Will you be there?
