WSLN is an entirely student-run, format-free, non-commercial FM radio station broadcasting from Delaware, Ohio. Affiliated with Ohio Wesleyan University, the station broadcasts with 15 watts of power at 98.7 MHz. The station also produces live streaming media, expanding the station's reach beyond its FM coverage area. The WSLN studios are located on the third floor of Slocum Hall, the Wesleyan Admissions Office Building, and feature basic production tools, a record library, and a live FM studio. The roof location has led the station to adopt the motto "It's better on the top." WSLN is licensed for continuous broadcast, but because the station is student-run, the signal is up only when school is in session.

In the fall of 2004, WSLN introduced internet radio.

WSLN's format-free nature makes for very diverse programming, and recently the station has started to program vertically so that similar shows are scheduled consecutively. Radio programs on WSLN run the gamut from bluegrass to independent hip hop to classical, and DJs are restricted only by FCC guidelines. Despite the station's flexibility, there are several long-running programs that are consistent in format, if not in content. WSLN's content largely consists of music broadcasting, and the station contributes to the CMJ Radio 200 chart.
