Dartmouth has WDCR and I believe an FM too.  Dunno about the FM, but I
know 
the AM is commercial.<<

WVBR-FM at Cornell University is not only commercial, but owned by the
Cornell Radio Guild, an organization of Cornell students, and is NOT
affiliated with Cornell University (which used to own WHCU-AM-FM in
Ithaca).  They used to simulcast on WVBR(AM) in the Cornell dorms...not
sure whether that's still true since the studios moved off campus in the
mid-1970s.
