Dear Fellow Broadcaster : Welcome to the newest edition of the Graduate Bulletin from Vincennes University’s Broadcasting Department. It introduces our graduates from May, August and December of 2005. This Bulletin is also available online. You can access it in three easy steps: * Visit the VU website at vinu.edu * At the VU homepage, word search “Broadcasting” * Select Grad Bulletin A Vincennes University Broadcasting student majors in Broadcasting or Broadcast Sales. Both come with intense hands-on experience. From the very first week of their education, our students are learning the operation of studio cameras and audio boards. Our department is far from “theory” oriented. We strive to keep our equipment as state-of-the-art as possible. Our faculty and staff have worked in the broadcasting industry and can relate to the needs of potential employers. Nearly every station in Indiana has employed Vincennes University Broadcasting graduates because they are ready to go to work. Some of our students decide to continue their education at a four-year university. Those students who transfer to another school are better prepared than the other students in the major, because of the intensive, hands-on classes and labs required here at VU. I appreciate your time in looking over this booklet. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at (812) 888-5417. If you would like to see our facilities, please contact me to arrange a tour. Sincerely, Douglas A.
