Executive History
Students... Executive... What?
The running of W963 / University Radio Warwick is overseen by a bunch of hooligans known as the
executive. This comprises between 5 and 12 (depending on the year) members of the station, elected
by a General Meeting of all the members of the station.
The executive positions that currently exist are:
- Station Manager
