The News Department allows students and community members to gain hands-on experience in broadcast journalism by writing and recording news stories. These meetings are a great opportunity for students and community members to network and connect with each other in a collaborative and supportive learning environment. The department covers major UConn events like HuskyTHON and First Night, and it offers students the ability to be foreign correspondents during their study abroad programs.
Husky Nation News is a podcast produced in collaboration with UCTV and The Daily Campus to provide news updates and lively conversation to the UConn community about campus happenings. The podcast is broadcasted live over FM signal.
News department meetings are held weekly on Tuesdays at 7pm at the station. Email Colin Piteo at newsdirector@whus.org if you are interested in joining or have any questions!
Meetings will be held online until classes resume in person. At that point, meetings will move to a hybrid format. For online or hybrid meetings, join at the link below. No experience is required to join WHUS News.
