    WBUQ has been off the air since mid-May for the summer break. The station’s first show will feature Alyssa Rudloff and Bob O’Boyle, opening up the airways Friday morning, with an alternative music show. Nearly 75 fellow student disc jockey’s follow Rudloff and O’Boyle throughout the programming week. Thirteen students comprise WBUQ’s executive staff who oversee the daily operations of the station.
