WHFR (89.3 MHz) is a low power radio station in Dearborn, Michigan, which is owned and operated by Henry Ford College.
WHFR programs a variety radio format, music heard little elsewhere on Detroit area radio stations. The station features alternative/modern rock, big bands, urban gospel, Americana, folk, blues, hip hop, jazz, space rock, urban rock, and world music, in addition to a weekly public affairs show. Most music shows highlight new releases, independent labels, and local artists. Through a satellite-delivered service known as "Classical 24," the station provides classical music in late nights and early mornings.
WHFR-FM is non-commercial, student-staffed, faculty-guided station with its radio studios in the college's Student Center. The transmitter is also on the campus, off Evergreen Road.[1]
