KSPC is a non-commercial radio station in Claremont, California, broadcasting on 88.7 FM.
KSPC airs college radio programming similar to other college radio stations across the country. The programming is divided into blocks by music genre: Underground, Classical, Americana, World, Jazz, and Hip-hop.
KSPC is funded by public donations and the Claremont Colleges' Student Associations.
The station's first broadcast occurred on February 12, 1956 on the campus of Pomona College. Ron McDonald (station manager) and Terry Drinkwater (program director) launched the station with an anonymous donation of $4,000. In his inaugural address, McDonald laid out the station's mission: “We don’t feel that it is the purpose of KSPC merely to duplicate programming already available on other radio stations, but rather to provide our listeners with a desirable type of programming not readily available in the area.”
KSPC was located in Pomona College's Replica House from 1956 until the mid-1970s, when the station received a major anonymous donation and constructed upgraded studios in the basement of Pomona's Thatcher Music Building. It remains there today.
KSPC is an active organizaion at the Claremont Colleges, and often works in cooperation with other students groups in support of social events, speakers, and special opportunities. In the past, KSPC has either supported or been supported by (or both) the Associated Students of Pomona College (ASPC), The Student Life newspaper, the Women's Union, and the Pomona college organic farm.
