WEIU-TV Awaits BOT Approval Before Continuing Digital Conversion Project Nov-16-2004 Two years ago, WEIU-TV began its conversion to digital television, beginning with its production and master control facilities. Soon, if Eastern Illinois University 's Board of Trustees gives its expected go-ahead, the process will continue with the acquisition of land and the installation of a 492-foot tower and transmitter. Trustees are scheduled to meet at 1 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 18, in the Grand Ballroom, located in the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. The public is invited to attend. It was in 1998 that the Federal Communications Commission mandated that all full-power television stations in the nation be required to acquire the ability to broadcast digitally, thereby eventually eliminating analog broadcasting. To aid in the process, the state of Illinois awarded all PBS licensees in Illinois $2.4 million to be applied toward the conversion. WEIU-TV chose to begin its conversion "inside-out," converting production and master control facilities before the transmission portion.

On Friday, his inauguration took place in the Grand Ballroom of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. Perry assumed the presidency at Eastern on July 1, but was formally honored by the university, past presidents, legislators, dignitaries and special guests at the inauguration ceremony with full academic regalia and lots of applause. "I stand humbled by the opportunity to serve as president of a university with a proud past and a bright future," Perry said. "Today, we formally observe a beginning in the life of Eastern Illinois University." Robert Webb, chair of the Board of Trustees, did his best to place the university's medallion over the head of the 6-foot-6-inch Perry as the crowd laughed and applauded. "He is taking presidential visibility to a whole new level," Webb joked to the crowd. Perry was named Eastern's 10th president last April after the announcement of President Lou Hencken's plans to retire July 30.

A glass one-gallon jug of dimethylbenzene fell and broke in Life Sciences Room 1021, a storage room, said Captain Richard Edwards of the Charleston Fire Department. No injuries were reported, said Lt. John Hatfill of the University Police Department. Dimethylbenzene, also known as xylene, is a colorless, oily, liquid aromatic hydrocarbon, used extensively as a solvent. It is obtained from coal tar, wood tar or petroleum, according to the Columbia Encyclopedia online. It is unknown at this time who was using the chemical or how the chemical was spilled, Edwards said.
