other possible outgrowths of a
cable system. Jack Shields,
theater department chairman,
said a class or spur to theater
acting could be “TV acting,”
where students would practice
the business of a television per
formance, he said.
“The broadcasts could range
from poetry readings to news,
and would draw students from
our own serving district, not
only at the College level,”
Shields said. At the crux of the
program, he said, “For
whatever information wants to
be dispersed, we would have
the people experienced in the
presentation of that material;
it’s a natural for student lear
ning.”
Additionally, a broadcasting
class involving the speech and
video departments would serve
a link in inter-curricular
programming. Frank Harlow,
speech instructor, said a broad
cast training class would give
speech students a chance to
create shows, and the video
department responsibility to
direct the stage. “It would be a
real basis for community
education,” Harlow said. Steve
Johnson, video technician for
the College, said a cable
system would “give the at
mosphere of a deadline to
video students, and provide a
more professional attitude in

trade.”
