Review Department
The Review Team's main responsibility is to traffic student submissions. This is the final step in getting
student submitted work onto our air waves. The process includes the review of material submitted, compressing the DVD/VHS
tape into H.264 format (to ensure the best quality), and lastly uploading it onto our playlist for viewing. We're the last stage in
bringing to student work to the entire UCSC community. This year we are working with the Programming Dept. in order to have regularly
scheduled programs
Events Department
The Events Team is responsible for filming real life happenings in and around the UCSC campus. It is our
