KWVA (88.1 FM) is a college radio station broadcasting from the EMU building on the University of Oregon campus in Eugene, Oregon, United States. Licensed to the Associated Students of the University of Oregon, it serves the Eugene metropolitan area. KWVA primarily plays a varied mix of music, in addition to many talk shows: Quack Smack, Anarchy Hour on Tuesdays, Oregon on the Air followed by Left Out on Wednesdays, Inform Radio on Fridays, as well as live news on Tuesdays and Thursdays. KWVA now regularly broadcasts University of Oregon athletics played in Eugene, including softball, lacrosse and women's soccer. In the future, sports coverage will include women's soccer, lacrosse, women's basketball, football, tennis, men's basketball and softball.

KWVA is wholly student-operated and owned, though community members not affiliated with the University of Oregon can volunteer to be on-air DJs.

Since Winter 2009, KWVA has kept up-to-date playlists of every show aired in the online database Spinitron.
