Carolina Week is a student newscast produced by students in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Students are responsible for all of the pieces aired as well as the production of the show. Supervised by a management team of professors and graduate students with prior professional broadcast experience, students shoot, write and edit their own stories. The program allows students to get lots of hands-on experience in the broadcast journalism field. Carolina Week has won numerous state, regional, and national awards.Reporters cover University, community and state news for two TV newscasts and one radio newscast per week. Each half hour TV newscast included news, weather and sports segments. Students commit approximately 500 work hours to the shows each week. These hours go into covering stories, editing, running studio and control room equipment and many other tasks.
