WQAC (90.9 FM; "The Duck") was a campus radio station located in Alma, Michigan and operated by Alma College. The station primarily played the music of up-and-coming modern rock bands. WQAC also had a large collection of evening student specialty shows. Over its history, these shows covered everything from world music to classic rock to talk shows.
The station signed on March 27, 1993.[1] In 2016, Alma College announced that WQAC would go silent; it would be replaced by "Pirate Media", a digital media service that incorporates photography and video in addition to radio programming.[2] The WQAC license was surrendered on February 12, 2018, and cancelled by the Federal Communications Commission on February 22, 2018.[3]
