UMD considers selling radio station - Andee Erickson, Duluth News Tribune

The University of Minnesota Board of Regents will likely vote in March on a resolution that could open up a discovery period to explore the sale of KUMD to Duluth-Superior Area Educational Television Corporation, more commonly known as WDSE-WRPT. UMD's operations and maintenance budget can't continue to support the ongoing operation of KUMD due to the university's financial challenges. In December, UMD announced plans to cut $5.2 million from the university's operations and maintenance budget next year to balance out its deficit.
