WDBK (91.5 FM) is a college radio station. "The Community Alternative", WDBK broadcasts in the Southern New Jersey / Philadelphia area that covers most of Camden County and parts of Gloucester and Burlington counties in New Jersey. WDBK's weekday programming consists of 1-hour live radio shows during the fall and spring semesters from 10 am to 3 pm. During the evenings and weekends, there are some specialty shows (not live) that will air. During the Spring of 2015 the station changed formats from Freeform to Alternative. WDBK plays national acts like CHVRCHES, Wavves, Bully, Warpaint, Grimes, and Mac DeMarco along with playing local bands such as Hop Along, Pine Barons, The Districts, and Beach Slang

In August 2014, Camden County College explored a sale of the WDBK license by listing it on a government liquidation website. The move came after it announced plans for the station to stream its programming on the Internet; in addition, much of WDBK's equipment is in need of replacement.[1]
