 The station would remain there until a larger space downstairs was renovated in 1999, offering two studios and an office.Previously, this new space had been a barber shop (that went bankrupt in the later 1960s/early 1970s because of the Hippy movement) and a bowling alley motor room.In 2008, for the 40th year of WVUM, IKEA aesthetically renovated the office in the University Center.
