Be Informed!—Classical 89.3 WCAL Cost-Benefit Analysis

Please read The Value of WCAL to Saint Olaf College: A Cost-Benefit Analysis, prepared by public broadcasting consultant Paul Krause. This 2001 analysis of WCAL shows that the radio station has a positive economic impact on Saint Olaf College. That benefit recently increased when the direct college subsidy to the station ended, so the addendum shows the updated benefits.
