Advisory Board
The Purpose of the Georgia Southern Broadcast Advisory Board is to Make a Good Program A GREAT ONE!
The board consists of members who are either broadcast program alumni or professional broadcasters interested in its success. As the program's alumni, we are the most visible testimony to its quality. We are anchors, account executives, disc jockeys, station managers, videographers, producers, editors, directors, consultants, and reporters. Georgia Southern Broadcast Alumni work in stations all over Georgia, and throughout the United States.
We owe the foundation of our success to the Georgia Southern Broadcasting Curriculum. Facilities and equipment are a vital part of our program as well, and here is where we could use your help.
Each of us has experienced, first hand, the challenge of learning despite limited resources. Now It Is Time For Us All To Give Something Back. Will You Help?
The Georgia Southern Broadcast Program Needs All of Us.
To become even better, it needs donated equipment or cash donations to build better laboratory facilities, and it needs a major donor or donors who will underwrite a new building of which we all can be proud.
Check with your facility's management to see if they can help.
Personally, earmark your next donation to Georgia Southern to The Broadcasting Program. All donations are tax deductible.
The members of the Advisory Board are working to make the Georgia Southern Broadcasting Program the best it can be.
Together, we can make a difference!
