CFRC 101.9FM opened its doors on Thursday, January 7, 2010 from 12-4pm to celebrate 50 years of broadcasting from Lower Carruthers Hall at Queen’s University. 2010 marks the 88th year of radio broadcasting at CFRC, which began as an experimental station in 1922. Originally housed in Fleming hall, CFRC moved down the lane to Lower Carruthers Hall in late 1959. Opening ceremonies for the new facilities were held on January 7, 1960. The Open House, organized on the 50th anniversary of this event, was attended by many listeners and journalists from local media.
