A talk show like Research Matters is just one example of how CJAM connects the university with the local community, according to Vern Smith.

“There are so many important research projects going on at the university and it’s critical for the people who fund them to have an understanding of how that work impacts their every day lives,” said Smith, the campus community radio station manager. “That’s really the whole point of Research Matters.”

A planned increase in the broadcast signal of campus community radio CJAMfm has the station redoubling efforts to attract donations during its 2012 pledge drive, which opens today.

The station has applied for a permit to quadruple its signal strength to more than 2,000 watts, which would allow listeners to tune in through Windsor-Detroit and beyond, says station manager Vern Smith.
