Various wavelength ranges generally trace different participants of the star formation process. Infrared wavelengths trace dust, optical data trace hot gas and radio continuum traces cold gas while X-ray and radio trace different aspects of magnetic fields. The advent of the 3 great space observatories and now the Enhanced VLA provided a unique opportunity to use this full wavelength coverage to understand the physical processes being observed during star formation. We have used independent, contemporaneous and simultaneous multi-wavelength programs to observe several star forming regions ranging from systems with over 2000 stars to systems with about 100 stars. We discuss several findings including searches for direct evidence of X-ray heating of disks, how the source distribution varies as a function of class and the nature of the X-ray/radio connection.
