Lights,Camera, Action LUT V hits the airwaves

aI n three, two, one ..."are the words some students in the telecommunications department have been hearing. It's not just routine practice, but real-world production. For the first time, Channel 19 allowed LU students to produce a 30minute news show every Friday night to highlight the week's top events.

WLBU Advisor Steve Troxel supervised the project. LU students used WLBU facilities to produce the weekly Central Virginia News Review. Don White served as one of the first student anchors for CVNR. He compiled the sports packages for the program. Keenan Howell and Dawn Tuttle were also forerunner student anchors for Channel 19.

"It's a great opportunity for students to get hands-on experience. Most other schools do not allow that opportunity," White said.

CVNR is funded through commercials, which are both sold and produced by LU students. The possiblities for CVNR are endless. The goals for Liberty Broadcasting Network are to have a station operated by students with more shows produced by students. $
