ETV Comes to Omaha University

Educational Television came to Omaha and our campus with the October debut  of Channel 26, a product of the Metropolitan Omaha Educational Broadcasting Association, and a tenant of the University. Local ETV is now broadcasting both adult and children's shows, both day and evening. Dr. Paul Borge doubles as  Station Manager and director of the OU radio-TV sequence. 

The Radio and Television Department continued broadcasting closed circuit classes the past year. Biology and Psychology 101 lectures were taped. Students majoring in television manned cameras, served as floor  managers and occasionally helped with the audio for these programs. The eleventh year of "TV Classroom" lectures was transmitted by KMTV from OU studios.  Priscilla Wilkins was student manager.  Instructor was Jim Onder.
