History

KZUU began as a cable station, KAZU, in the spring of 1977 while the FCC considered an application from the Associated Students of Washington State University for a 10 watt FM license. The construction permit was granted in the spring of 1979, the tower erected on top of the Compton Union Building in August and after testing the station went on the air on the first day of registration in September 1979. Washington State Magazine celebrated the station's 25th anniversary in 2005. http://wsm.wsu.edu/stories/2005/May/kzuu.html
