On the air

MTTV, the student-run television station at MTSU, was selected the best college station in Tennessee and third overall in the Southeast last week at the Southeastern Journalism Conference’s annual gathering in Nashville. Southeastern Louisiana won the overall award for best college television station. The University of Troy came in second. The judging was based on two newscasts that aired between Nov. 15, 2007, and Nov. 14, 2008. During this period, Tiffany Sawyer, a recent graduate, and Kipp Lawton, a sophomore, served as station news directors. MTTV News airs Monday through Thursday at 6:30 p.m. MTTV also airs student-produced entertainment programs, MTSU athletics, and is the home of “The Rick Insell Show.”
