Course Description

Summary

While discovery, analysis, criticism, and creativity are essential pillars of the mission of an academic institution, the potential to transform that knowledge into public action is limited by the ability to powerfully and effectively communicate truth to the world.  With that in mind, this class will be an intense seven-week workshop geared towards creating information-based programming for radio.  This will include both condensed short-form news reports, and long-form interviews and podcasts.  There will be a focus (though not exclusively) on issues relevant to both our college and our greater community.  Audio assignments completed by the students will be broadcast on Bennington Radio (B-Rad)
