Campus ChampionWhen communication studies major Katie Kellas arrived on campus, it just made sense to get involved with the College’s TV station. Four years later, she considers CSTV a major priority. She’s club president, focused on fine tuning operations and guiding classmates for a smooth transition when she graduates next spring. Her experiences behind the camera led to a Time Warner internship last summer, and that training gave her the tools to launch innovative programming at CSTV. It includes an eight-minute halftime segment for the TV broadcast of next week’s Cortaca Jug football game. Undoubtedly, Katie will leave her mark on the station and it on her.
