This doesn't look like a good thing for the Pullman campus. Those who know the Pullman program know things are lacking...Looks like WSU Vancouver is picking up the slack...
FROM WSU TODAY ONLINE:
VANCOUVER – The Digital Technology and Culture program at
WSU Vancouver has formed a partnership with the Fort Vancouver
Community Television, a nonprofit community public access television
station (cable channel 11). Together their aim is to train future
community media leaders and expand the presence of community television
in Clark County.
 FVTV
will provide professional internship opportunities to students in the
Digital Technology and Culture (DTC) program, work with DTC faculty in
training students in video production, and help students gain project
management experience in digital media.
John Barber, DTC faculty, and Pete Anderson, FVTV
community outreach coordinator, will co-teach a “Community Media”
course in spring 2009 at WSU Vancouver.
DTC students and FVTV professionals will team up to produce
narrative videos, documentary films, websites, animations, podcasts,
internet radio programs and other digital media, for nonprofit
organizations in the Southwest Washington region.
“This will help raise students’ awareness of, and commitment to,
community involvement through ethical and professional utilizations of
media,” said Barber, “as well as build continued support for public
access media.”
Other joint projects planned include fundraising events, a digital
storytelling festival, and a live multi-media performance and broadcast
of the Orson Welles’ radio show, “The War of the Worlds.”
