WIIT (88.9 FM) is a radio station located at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Licensed to Chicago, Illinois, USA, it serves the Chicago area. The station is currently owned by Illinois Institute of Technology.

The station has previously had its call letters forced to WOUI by a similar sounding radio station. The station eventually returned to its original call letters, WIIT, on February 23, 2001.

The station has survived debilitating lightning strikes, budgets below $100, and being forced from their original location in the Armor Building on IIT Campus to a smaller location across the hall.

The station moved to the McCormick Tribune Campus Center in 2004.

The station has an open format and focuses on allowing students and community members to experience broadcast.
