ATV: American University Television is a student-run organization based at American University in Washington, D.C.. The station's programming runs through the residence halls and throughout campus on channels 2 and 15 as well as streaming content online. ==History== ATV was founded in 1979 as WAVE-TV to serve as a new media outlet for AU students beyond the existing student newspaper and radio station. In 1981, WAVE-TV was formally recognized by the AU Student Confederation, and began full operation as a campus wide closed circuit television station, which broadcast three nights a week. WAVE-TV was funded by the Student Confederation and by local advertisers. In 1989, WAVE-TV was renamed to American Television (A-TV2, later shortened to ATV). Over the course of the 1990s, ATV became available to televisions in student residence hall rooms, and significantly expanded its programming. In 1996, ATV was recognized by the Society of Professional Journalists, receiving the Mark of Excellence award in sports reporting and overall newscast. Until the early 2000s, ATV filmed most of its shows in the SOC Media Production Center. Following AU's renovation of the Mary Graydon Center in 2002, ATV moved into a new dedicated studio and office space on MGC's second floor, outfitted with cameras and equipment donated to the station by AU alumni Norman and Mary Klotz ('76, '79). Shortly after the move, ATV began broadcasting its programs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for the first time. ATV launched its first dedicated website in 2007, and launched an online live-stream simulcast of its on-campus broadcast in 2009, expanding the reach of the station's programming beyond an on-campus student audience for the first time. Most of ATV’s viewers are now online. In 2011, ATV launched an innovative new rebranding campaign, along with a new logo and station imaging, bringing greater campus visibility to ATV's programming and participation opportunities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ATV - American University Television」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
