KVRX is a federally licensed Class A non-commercial, educational (NCE) FM broadcast station operated by Texas Student Media at the University of Texas-Austin on behalf of the University of Texas System Board of Regents, the station licensee, in Austin, Texas. KVRX is staffed by students under the management of one-part-time adviser and an administrative staff of six full-time professionals. KVRX operates on the air from 7 p.m. to 9 a.m. weekdays and from 7 p.m. to 10 a.m. weekends, but also streams over the internet 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The station has a compelling interest in the aforementioned proceedings because of the large amount of programming that is streamed over the Internet. KVRX is currently in compliance with statutory performance royalty requirements, such as filing Reports of Use to SoundExchange and paying the minimum fee of $500 annually based upon our ATH statistic. Meting the current standard has been a difficult and labor intensive project, involving manual entry of play data, since much of our recorded music is played live from either CD's or vinyl LP records in our station library. KVRX has never exceeded the current ATH threshold that establishes the minimal annual payment for small non-commercial webcasters.

  • Page Dr. Jennifer R. Hammat April 19, 2015 Dear
    April 19, 2015 Dear Search Committee Members, It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application materials for your consideration to be your next Assistant Vice President for Campus Sexual Assault & Title IX Coordinator (AVP/TIXC) at the University of Oregon. For 20 years, I have worked with and on behalf of students to improve the quality of their overall educational experience. As evidenced by my resume, I have served in various student life capacities at major universities in my career. During this time, I have worked collaboratively with common purpose alongside colleagues at the campus and system levels to promote student success. I have developed, overseen, and evaluated many programs and activities aimed at improving the undergraduate and graduate student experience. Growing up in a student affairs home, I learned about student development theory, student crisis management, staff morale, personnel matters and budget issues at our dining room table. Perhaps before I knew it, this work was always my calling. For eight years, I served as the Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs at The University of Texas at Austin. Four years ago I was selected by the president to also serve as the Institutional Title IX Coordinator. This role has been profoundly insightful and motivating, and has expanded in importance for the president and the institution. The position was relocated to University Compliance Services last year and reclassified to Associate Vice President to elevate the significance of Title IX, Clery Act and Youth Protection Program compliance to the campus community. Having served as the lead administrator for this portfolio, I recognized the need to locate this role closer to the president in University Compliance Services.
