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 2007. 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 Here at Vincennes University, we are always looking to the future to improve our program. Beginning this academic year all of our students will be required to complete ENG, Newsroom Operations, and Broadcast Sales II, eliminating the separate production and sales options. This will give all of our graduates a more well-rounded education. This change has been met with enthusiasm from our Advisory Committee. Members of the Vincennes University Broadcasting Advisory Committee are: KEVIN CONNERS WISH-TV, Indianapolis DAVE CROOKS WAMW, Washington & WFML/WVUB, Vincennes PATRECE DAYTON WTHI-TV 10, Terre Haute HILTON DIAZ Charter Communications, Vincennes JOHNNY GEORGE Johnny George Voiceovers,, Indianapolis MASON HOLLIS Duncan Video, Indianapolis NANCY KIRKPATRICK Keller-Crescent Co., Evansville GENE KUNTZ WITZ-AM/FM, Jasper CLARENCE MANN WFIE-TV, Evansville BRIAN MATTINGLY Mattingly Communications, Indianapolis STEVE OGLESBY Oglesby Digital Post Inc., Evansville JOE STOLL WISH-TV, Indianapolis BRUCE VILLINES WFIE-TV, Evansville DANNY WAYNE Midwest Communications, Terre Haute We appreciate the input given by our Advisory Committee. We strive to give students a hands-on education from the very first week of classes. In the opening week of labs, our students learn the operation of studio cameras and audio boards. VU Broadcasting is far from “theory” oriented. We 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 prospective employers. Practically every station in Indiana has employed VU Broadcasting graduates because they are ready to go to work. Those students who decide to continue their education at a four-year school report that they are ahead of the other students in the major because of the 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.
