Minnesota Public Radio
KNSR 88.9 (News and Information)
KSJR 90.1 (Classical Music)
Minnesota Public Radio, founded at Saint
John's in 1967 with KSJR (90.1 FM), has grown to be the largest and
most successful public radio system in the United States. During the
early years of KSJR, Garrison Keillor started to develop the
characters of what became "A Prairie Home Companion." Today's
33-station network serves all of Minnesota and parts of five adjacent
states with classical music, as well as news and information
programming. It has been described by the president of the Corporation
for Public Broadcasting as "the model for public radio . . . clearly
the nation's best." KSJR is joined on campus by KNSR (88.9 FM).
