Steinke, Acting Executive Director Contact: Steve Parrott, Director of University Relations University of Iowa, 319-335-0552 Aug. 8, 2005 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CINDY BROWNE APPOINTED IOWA PUBLIC RADIO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Cindy Browne, a Minnesota-based public broadcasting consultant and former executive vice president for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, has been appointed executive director of Iowa Public Radio, effective Sept. 1. Iowa Public Radio is a new structure established by the Board of Regents, State of Iowa, to consolidate the public radio stations at Iowa State University, the University of Northern Iowa and the University of Iowa into a statewide network. The executive director is a new position that will oversee operations of the stations and report to the Iowa Public Radio executive council, which appointed Browne to the new position during a telephonic meeting Monday, Aug. 8. Browne will be paid an annual salary of $120,000. “We are excited that Cindy Browne has agreed to be the first executive director of Iowa Public Radio,” said Art Neu, a Carroll lawyer who is chair of the IPR executive council. “We are confident that she has the experience, the talent and the creativity to successfully achieve the goals of expanding the reach of our public radio stations, especially to western and southern Iowa, and to maintain the historic relationships between the stations and our three state universities.” “It’s an honor to be chosen for this position,” Browne said. “It’s a tremendous challenge and opportunity. I’m really eager to begin the process of meeting with the staff of all the radio stations, with stakeholders at each university, with listeners and supporters of the stations, and with Iowans around the state to learn more about their visions of what Iowa Public Radio can and should be.” Since 2000, Browne has been president of Leader Evolution LLC, a consulting practice focused on supporting public broadcasters and other nonprofits. Her clients include Houston PBS and Houston Public Radio, Minnesota Public Radio, Public Radio Capital, Michigan Public Media, Wisconsin Public Television, and Twin Cities Public Television. She has made presentations at numerous national public broadcasting conferences. She was executive vice president of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting from 1998 to 1999, where she served on the three-person executive management team. Prior to CPB, she worked for Twin Cities Public Television, serving as vice president for programming (1989-94) and then as vice president and general manager (1994-98). 11260 Aurora Avenue • Urbandale, Iowa 50322-7905 • Phone 515-281-3934 • Fax 515-281-6420 www.state.ia.us/educate/regents Browne has a bachelor’s degree in history and an MBA in finance, both from the University of Minnesota. Iowa Public Radio includes WSUI-AM and KSUI-FM at the University of Iowa, WOI AM and FM at Iowa State University, and KUNI-FM and KHKE-FM at the University of Northern Iowa. The operations have combined revenues of about $6 million annually and about 60 employees. The five-member Iowa Public Radio executive council includes one representative from each of the three state universities as well as two Iowans appointed by the Board of Regents. In addition to Neu, a former Iowa lieutenant governor and past Board of Regents member, members of the IPR executive council are Kay Runge, director of the Des Moines Public Library; Steve Carignan, director of the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center, UNI; Warren Madden, vice president for business and finance, ISU; and Steve Parrott, UI director of University Relations. ### .

Regent institutional budgets as presented on pages 5-9. 2. Iowa Public Radio budget as presented in Attachment D on page 23. 3. Board Office operating budget as shown in Attachment E on page 24.

The FY 2010 budgets for the special schools were approved at the June 2009 meeting. In April, the Board considered key budgetary issues to provide guidance in the development of the FY 2010 institutional budgets. In June, the Board approved the institutional salary policies and received FY 2010 budget development updates from Iowa’s public universities, which included the projected application of one-time federal economic stimulus funding. The Board also adopted a resolution to hold salaries flat in FY 2010 for all non-bargaining unit employees with exceptions being approved by the institutional heads upon consultation with the Board Office. The Board is now asked to consider approval of the proposed budgets for the universities, Iowa Public Radio, and the Board Office. The Regent institutional budgets include two basic types of funds: General operating funds include operational appropriations, interest income, tuition and fee revenues, reimbursed indirect costs, and sales and services revenues. Some appropriations are designated for specific operating uses and cannot be used for other purposes.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

  • Fy 2020 Capital Request
    FY 2020 CAPITAL REQUEST Iowa Public Radio (IPR) requests $1.3M for three high priority capital projects required for WOI-FM, KSUI-FM, and KICP-FM. These stations are three of the IPR network’s largest signals. Without timely attention, there is growing danger of significant failure. Iowa Public Radio respectfully requests support for these capital needs, which are explained in detail below. IPR manages 25 stations and serves 250,000 listeners statewide with three programming services: News, Classical, and Studio One. IPR’s combined radio groups serve rural and urban Iowa, touching all of Iowa’s 99 counties. The history of public radio in Iowa is long and proud: two of our stations are almost a century old, with licenses among the first 100 radio licenses ever granted by the FCC. We expect to celebrate their centennial in 2022. WOI-FM Antenna, Transmitter and Transmission Line Request: $830,000 for replacing WOI-FM antenna, transmission line, transmitter and studio-to- transmitter link This project would replace the antenna and transmission system for WOI-FM, licensed to Iowa State University. WOI-FM is the main signal for the Iowa Public Radio network in the Des Moines/Ames area, and is an essential hub for our statewide network. Originating in Ames, the signal serves 60,600 listeners in 15 counties in central Iowa with news, information and cultural programming. WOI-FM is very popular, averaging in the top 10 stations in the Des Moines metro market, and is ranked the #2 news station (of around 15) in the Des Moines metro area.

  • Fy 2019 Capital Request
    FY 2019 CAPITAL REQUEST Iowa Public Radio (IPR) requests $1.18 M for two high priority capital projects, at WOI-FM (the flagship station for ISU’s radio group) and KSUI-FM (the flagship station for U of I’s radio group). WOI and KSUI are two of the IPR network’s largest signals. Without timely attention, there is growing danger of significant failure. Iowa Public Radio and the Iowa Board of Regents respectfully request support for these capital needs. Iowa Public Radio manages the stations on behalf of Iowa State University and the University of Iowa, per a Public Service Operating Agreement. Iowa Public Radio was created in 2004 by the Iowa Board of Regents to manage the public radio groups owned by Iowa State University, University of Iowa and University of Northern Iowa. On behalf of the universities, IPR manages 25 stations, with tangible assets valued at over $11 M, serving 260,000 listeners statewide with three programming services: News, Classical, and Studio One. Per our Public Service Operating Agreement with the Board of Regents and the universities, the universities provide the transmission and studio facilities, and IPR manages the stations for the universities. Significant capital maintenance needs are included in the Regents’ 5 year capital plans, and fall in the deferred maintenance line. In 2015, the legislature approved $100,000 to replace the transmitter of KICL-FM, a ISU-owed Des Moines-area Classical signal. The station was highly unreliable, suffering frequent outages. With your support, KICL is now a high functioning Classical music service. Your support was essential for that project.

  • Iowa Public Radio
    GUEST COLUMN SUBMISSION Special to The Gazette The “Other” Iowa Public Radio -- by Dennis Green The Board of Regents has recently accepted a consultant’s recommendation to consolidate its three public radio operations (KUNI, WOI and WSUI/KSUI) into a state-wide service called “Iowa Public Radio.” There’s something you should know about this plan. “Iowa Public Radio” is only a fraction of Iowa’s public radio . The report refers numerous times to “Iowa’s three public radio stations.” But public radio in our state is much more than the three University-run organizations. In reality, Iowa is home to a number of community-supported stations which provide a rich variety of programs to serve the needs of their individual communities. KWIT-FM, licensed to Western Iowa Tech Community College in Sioux City, airs the familiar National Public Radio (NPR) programming, but also locally-produced music shows and the state’s only Spanish-Language programs. In Council Bluffs, KIWR’s youth-oriented alternative rock format makes a significant impact in the competitive Omaha market. Waterloo’s KBBG is operated by a community board, and provides programming geared to the needs of its home town, particularly the minority population. And locally, Iowa’s only Jazz radio station, Kirkwood’s KCCK-FM enriches young and old with programs and outreach events celebrating America’s only indigenous musical art form. Along with several other educational and community licensees, we represent the “Other” Iowa Public Radio. For many listeners, public radio equals NPR. Thoughtful news programs like “Morning Edition” and “All Things Considered,” as well as entertaining shows like “Car Talk” entertain and inform tens of thousands of listeners here in Iowa and millions nationwide.
