However, certain decisions are the prerogative of the Administration and the Board of Trustees. The administrative approach is intended to be cooperative in spirit and democratic in operation, allowing all University employees participation at various levels in the decision-making processes of the institution. Such an approach requires individual responsibility. Employees are obligated to consider the total welfare of the institution, while at the same time representing their teaching and service needs. The administration not only invites but also seeks constructive suggestions and discussions. Operations The basic philosophy and objectives of the University are described in the Vincennes University Catalog. All employees should familiarize themselves with the philosophy and objectives and utilize them in their work. The University is an “open door” institution in the tradition of all comprehensive public two-year or community colleges. Being an open door institution means that any student who has a diploma from an accredited high school, has successfully completed the General Education Development test (GED), or is in good standing from an accredited college may enroll at Vincennes University and receive the benefit of University services. Vincennes University also welcomes students graduating from schools which are not yet accredited or from home schooling programs under specific conditions. (See the Catalog, “Requirements for Admission” for complete details.) Students without high school diplomas may sometimes be helped to overcome deficiencies through special tests, correspondence and special courses, and/or the Adult Basic Education (ABE) program. Such students may be probationally admitted to certain programs when they can demonstrate satisfactory evidence of their ability to carry the work and have completed ABE requirements. Vincennes University’s philosophy is that all properly motivated and dedicated high school graduates should have the opportunity to attempt a college education. College success involves a variety of factors including motivation, readiness to work, personal adjustment, ability, and past educational development, some of which are not easily measured by standardized tests. While a correlation exists between success in high school and success in college, sincere students, regardless of educational backgrounds, should have the right to attempt a college education. Furthermore, the University offers a “comprehensive program,” which means that a variety of educational programs is available to meet the needs, talents, interests, and present developments of the students and the community. Such a variety of programs is necessary and crucial in an open door A2 institution. A3 Date:9-05 Institutional Vision and Mission Vision Statement Vincennes University is a premier learning institution, widely recognized for leadership in innovation and delivery of successful educational experiences. A broad range of program offerings and a commitment to superior service ensure the University's role as an important link in Indiana's economic and cultural vitality. VU is a diverse community whose members all share responsibility for supporting the University's mission and are respected for their contributions. Mission Statement Vincennes University, Indiana's first college, is the State's premier transfer institution and leader in innovative career programming. The VU community ensures educational access, delivers proven associate and baccalaureate programs, and offers cultural opportunities and community services in a diverse, student-centered, collegiate environment. Approved by the VU Board of Trustees at its September 28, 2005 meeting.

  • Listening Patterns – 2 About the Study Creating the Format Groups

Thomas and Theresa R. Clifford December 2005 STATION RESOURCE GROUP 6935 Laurel Avenue Takoma Park, MD 20912 301.270.2617 www.srg.org TThhee PPuubblliicc RRaaddiioo FFoorrmmaatt SSttuuddyy:: LLiisstteenniinngg PPaatttteerrnnss Each week the 393 public radio organizations supported by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting reach some 27 million listeners. 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.

For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

  • Potential Impacts to Public Radio Transmission Facilities from TV Band Repacking
    Meintel, Sgrignoli & Wallace CPB A Report To The Corporation for Public Broadcasting Regarding Potential Impacts To Public Radio Transmission Facilities From TV Band Repacking Dennis Wallace William Meintel MEINTEL, SGRIGNOLI, & WALLACE, LLC 1282 Smallwood Drive, Suite 372 Waldorf, MD 20603 (202) 251-7589 February 2, 2017 Radio Impacts from TV Facility Changes 1 of 11 Meintel, Sgrignoli & Wallace CPB Executive Summary The firm of Meintel, Sgrignoli, and Wallace, LLC (MSW) is pleased to provide the following report to the Corporation for Public Television (CPB) in response to its Scope of Work to provide Post-Auction Spectrum Planning services to CPB. Specifically, MSW was tasked with studying the potential impacts to Public Radio Station Transmitter Facilities that may result from the TV Band Repack and associated DTV Station channel changes and facility modifications. Digital Television stations will be repacked to channels 2-36 after the completion of the FCC’s Incentive Auction. These channel changes are likely to impact some Public Radio stations that a share tower or are near-co-located with a television station. There are several possible impacts ranging from down-time during rigging and derigging operations to loss of tower space and possible relocation due to tower structural limits. The specific impact is highly dependent upon the specific tower situation as well as the new channel assigned to the co-located TV Station(s). A. Potentially Impacted Radio Stations MSW has conducted a study to determine the number of CPB Eligible Radio Stations that are co-located on the same tower as one or more TV Stations.

Our students will be able to shoot ENG, write their own script, do a stand-up, and edit their own footage. In addition, after our graduates pass the Radio Marketing Professional (RMP) test, they will continue to be certified by the Radio Advertising Bureau. WVUB-FM has taken the leap into high-definition broadcasting. WVUB-The Blazer continues to be extremely popular in southern Indiana. Now we offer WVUB HD-2 with a Cool Jazz format. To listen to WVUB HD-2, go to vinu.edu and click on “WVUB HD-2 Plays Cool Jazz” on the left side of the page near the bottom. Vincennes University continues to give students a hands-on education from the very first week of classes.

A second survey of 18 networks sought to gather indepth information on network operation. Results showed that 22.2 percent of the stations surveyed were participating in program cooperatives, and over 79 percent felt that network participation would be beneficial. It was concluded that the cooperative program tape network should continue in order to fulfill specialized programing needs. A copy of the two questionnaires, the letter of transmittal, and the mailing list is appended. A list of the networks that participated in the study, 12 statistical tables, and a 20-item bibliography are included.

Since the beginning of 2010, the national weekly radio audience has grown from 239.7 million to 243 million listeners tuning in across more than 250 local markets in every corner of the country. 243 MILLION AMERICANS LISTEN TO RADIO EACH WEEK In a time of changing habits and new digital platforms, radio’s consistent audience numbers are quite remarkable. With the holidays just around the corner, consumers will be turning to the radio to catch their favorite sounds of the season or stay in touch with what’s happening in their local community each day. PUBLIC RADIO OFFERS AN UNCOMMON MIX OF PROGRAMMING FOR 32 MILLION LISTENERS This year we have profiled the overall radio landscape, multicultural audiences and network radio listeners, and for our final report we turn our attention to Public Radio; the more than 900 rated stations which offer an eclectic mix of news, entertainment, music and cultural programming in markets large and small. Public Radio is a unique and relevant part of the lives of 32 million Americans and exists in large part due to the financial support of the listeners we examine in the following pages.
