The course is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of producing a news program and developing a radio documentary. Students will gain an understanding of how to produce a radio news program by working with The Rowan Report, a half-hour news show that airs on WGLS-FM, on a weekly basis during the semester. Students are expected to serve as producers and on-air talent for the show. Also, they will gain hands-on experience with Metro Source, a news-gathering system used by Rowan Radio and audio editing software.
