WNJR is holding a campus-wide Jingle Contest. A jingle is a short song or tune played on the air as part of a radio station’s branding.* Jingles can be a cappella or set to music, and feature a wide range of vocal and instrumentation styles. Content creators from all majors are encouraged to participate!


First Prize: $45 W&J gift card and your jingle played on-air in 2021

 

Second Prize: $30 W&J gift card and your jingle played on-air in 2021

 

Third Prize: $15 W&J gift card and your jingle played on-air in 2021

  • Your jingle should be 10-30 seconds, and must include the line: “91.7 FM WNJR Washington”
  • All music and audio content must be your own original creation. You can come up with your own slogan, use references to Washington & Jefferson College, or use WNJR’s own “College Radio” tag. Be creative!
  • Your submission must be ready-to-air (no “demo tapes”).


Submission Instructions:

  • Your submission must be emailed to JingleContest@WNJR.org. as an MP3 file attachment or share link. Use “WNJR Jingle Contest” as the subject line. You will receive a response to confirm your submission. Please include your full name and class year in the email.

  • All submissions must be received by 11:59PM on April 4.
