|Established in [[established::1969]] by the Student Organisation of the University of Ljubljana, [[Radio Študent (RŠ)]] is one of Europe's oldest and strongest non-commercial, alternative radio stations. Its diverse and dedicated programme activities encompass presenting and evaluating different forms of popular music, covering and analysing current political and social phenomena, dealing with the many fields of arts and humanities, following and critically dissecting student and university politics and policies, enacting radio plays, reciting works of literature and poetry – and quite a lot more.
  
In the history of Slovene radio broadcasting RŠ stands out as the foremost presenter and critical evaluator of actual global music events with its characteristic form of music criticism, heartfelt and absorbed presentation of liminal, edgy, marginalised and socially provocative music from the world, ranging from all alternative forms of rock, jazz and improvised music, avant-garde and folk music, experimental music, contemporary DJ and electrophonic music.  
+
All of the above is permeated by wit, humour, a laid back approach, political responsibility and intellectual vigour and thoroughness. It is broadcast on 89.3 MHz (500 W) UKV stereo, covering Ljubljana and its surroundings (a basin of 500,000 potential listeners), and is (since 1998) available to listen online.
  
Since 2010 Radio Študent and [[Kino Šiška Centre for Urban Culture|Kino Šiška]] organise in March the TRESK festival, an annual showdown of music and record labels. TRESK features a flea market, record label presentation and merchandise, round tables (topics: ''What threatens the development of concert venues in Slovenia?'', ''Innovative types of publishing: Emergency exit or ...?''), electronic live-acts and gigs. The best designed Slovenian record or compact disc cover, flyer image and the best concert photograph of the previous year are awarded.

==Background==
 +
 +
The radio started broadcasting its programme in 1969, when it was founded by the Association of Students of the University of Ljubljana, which was eager to present an outlet for local students, who had also woken up during the turbulent year of 1968. However, from its beginnings Radio Student has been one of the few local asylums of alternative independent journalism and the only electronic media open to new aesthetics and approaches in various fields of arts and culture.
 +
 +
The explosion of punk rock and independent musical production of the late 1970’s and the beginning of economical and political crisis in Yugoslavia in the early 80’s strongly shifted the focus of Radio Student to more controvert social and political issues. This was a period of the quick rise of the widely respected Radio Student school of journalism, which still lays a strong emphasis on bringing down the walls of taboos and on practising freedom of speech and thought.

Due to the variety and range of these contributors, many innovative cultural, political and social initiatives have sprung from the activities of Radio Študent. RŠ programming policy fuses community radio and public service concepts. From its earliest days the station has promoted civil society initiatives, particularly in connection with urban lifestyles, freedom of speech, independent thought, libertarian values, cultural diversity, social critique, tolerance, social solidarity and human rights. In the 1990s during the bloody war in ex-Yugoslavia RŠ broadcast a dedicated programme for refugees in Slovenia.
 
  
Every week Radio Študent prepares 45 hours of arts and cultural programming (music programmes and DJ shows are the most popular), 21 hours of information programming and 3 hours of educational programming. It is broadcast on 89.3 MHz (500 W) UKV stereo, covering Ljubljana and its surroundings (500,000 potential listeners).
+
Today, the radio daily broadcasts 17 hours of its own programme during the week and 14 during weekends. About 200 regular contributors are involved: journalists, art and music critics, D.J.s, announcers (who have always added strong personal flavour to the programme moderated) and technicians (who also give significant personal touch to the programme by their hilarious use of radio jingles and their interest in radio puns), etc. The majority of them are students, and a number of them are highly respected intellectuals, journalists, artists and university lecturers.  
 +
 
 +
Four different editorial departments make up the radio – for culture and humanities, for university and science, for current politics and for music. The latter is characterised by a heartfelt and absorbed presentation of edgy, marginalised and provocative music from around the world, ranging from alternative rock, jazz and improvised music, avant-garde and folk music, to experimental electronica, musique concrète and techno, together with its other clubbing derivatives.
 +
 
 +
In between these departments are radio shows run by and for the Roma population and other ethnic minorities, shows on drugs, video games and technology, 'live radio comics', radio art and many other, often very unique radio emissions.

Since 2001 Radio Študent has set out to discover and encourage young and relatively unknown Slovene musical artists and bands that show originality, creativity and the potential to evolve into respected Slovene innovators – an important initiative in this area is the Radio Študent [[Club Marathon]], an annual six-week Autumn tour by six selected bands to 20 clubs in Slovenia, which promotes young talent and introduces new genres and musical developments to the wider public as well as to the music industry. The station also offers a recording studio service for young bands.

Background

The radio started broadcasting its programme in 1969, when it was founded by the Association of Students of the University of Ljubljana, which was eager to present an outlet for local students, who had also woken up during the turbulent year of 1968. However, from its beginnings Radio Student has been one of the few local asylums of alternative independent journalism and the only electronic media open to new aesthetics and approaches in various fields of arts and culture.

The explosion of punk rock and independent musical production of the late 1970’s and the beginning of economical and political crisis in Yugoslavia in the early 80’s strongly shifted the focus of Radio Student to more controvert social and political issues. This was a period of the quick rise of the widely respected Radio Student school of journalism, which still lays a strong emphasis on bringing down the walls of taboos and on practising freedom of speech and thought.

Programme

Today, the radio daily broadcasts 17 hours of its own programme during the week and 14 during weekends. About 200 regular contributors are involved: journalists, art and music critics, D.J.s, announcers (who have always added strong personal flavour to the programme moderated) and technicians (who also give significant personal touch to the programme by their hilarious use of radio jingles and their interest in radio puns), etc. The majority of them are students, and a number of them are highly respected intellectuals, journalists, artists and university lecturers.

Four different editorial departments make up the radio – for culture and humanities, for university and science, for current politics and for music. The latter is characterised by a heartfelt and absorbed presentation of edgy, marginalised and provocative music from around the world, ranging from alternative rock, jazz and improvised music, avant-garde and folk music, to experimental electronica, musique concrète and techno, together with its other clubbing derivatives.

In between these departments are radio shows run by and for the Roma population and other ethnic minorities, shows on drugs, video games and technology, 'live radio comics', radio art and many other, often very unique radio emissions.
