Established in 1969 by the Student Organisation of the University of Ljubljana, Radio Študent (RŠ) is one of Europe's oldest and strongest non-commercial, alternative radio stations. Its diverse and dedicated programme activities encompass presenting and evaluating different forms of popular music, covering and analysing current political and social phenomena, dealing with the many fields of arts and humanities, following and critically dissecting student and university politics and policies, enacting radio plays, reciting works of literature and poetry – and quite a lot more.

All of the above is permeated by wit, humour, a laid back approach, political responsibility and intellectual vigour and thoroughness. It is broadcast on 89.3 MHz (500 W) UKV stereo, covering Ljubljana and its surroundings (a basin of 500,000 potential listeners), and is (since 1998) available to listen online.
