02/18/04

An AEP/SWEPCO grant is funding a new broadcast lab in the LSUS Communications Department. The grant – totaling $40,000 over three years – and the equipment to be purchased with it will be discussed at 10:15 a.m. Friday, Feb. 27, when two LSUS broadcast journalism students will “interview” AEP/SWEPCO head Brian Bond on a “set” in the classroom that will house the TV studio. This unusual news conference will be in Room 363 in Bronson Hall on the LSUS campus.

LSUS Chancellor Vince Marsala; Dr. Jack Nolan, chair of the Communications Department, and Dr. Johnette McCrery, assistant professor of communications, will also be on hand to answer questions and conduct individual interviews.

News releases and backgrounders will be distributed at the news conference.
