WZIS-FM (90.7 FM, Z90.7) was formerly WMHD-FM, the student radio station at Indiana State University in Terre Haute, Indiana. The broadcast studio was located on campus in the basement of the Baur-Sames Bogart Residence Hall, while the antenna was located across the Wabash in West Terre Haute, Indiana.

The staff consisted of many dedicated volunteers which include undergraduate and graduate students, as well as faculty and staff.[1]

In 2013, WMHD ceased broadcasting over the air, but continues to stream programming today at http://wmhdradio.org. In 2014, Rose-Hulman sold the broadcast assets of WMHD to Indiana State University.[2] The sale, at a price of $16,465, was consummated on August 15, 2014. Previously, on August 8, 2014, the station changed its call sign to the current WZIS-FM. WMHD radio is still accessible in an online format today at http://wmhdradio.org.
