KWRS, also known as Spokane's Pirate Radio, is a non-commercial college radio station specializing in indie and alternative rock. The Spokane-based station broadcasts out of the Hixon Union Building (or 'HUB') at Whitworth University.

The station is entirely student-run, from the leadership team to the DJs. Sarah Edlin-Marlowe is the faculty advisor, but the rest of the leadership team is made up of Whitworth students. This team includes the general manager (Matthew "Bud" Bareither), music director (Caleb Knox), web manager (Alice Clawson), and underwriting coordinator (Thayer Wild).

KWRS broadcasts at 90.3 MHz with an ERP of .016kw. It can be heard at 90.3 on the FM dial within a five-mile radius of the Whitworth campus, or in a webcast format from the official website.
