Why not?  They issued WFUC.  (As a sequential call, no less!)  It's
now WBAA-FM; apparently the Purdue administration didn't want the
students signing on with that call.  KFKU used to exist; it was the
now-deleted 1250 at the University of Kansas, and was a
single-transmitter share-time with WREN in Topeka.  (WREN was moved to
Kansas City and is now KYYS.)  See Richie Kennedy's Web site:
