About The Media Center

In July 2024, the College of Communication and Information launched The Media Center, an integrated media program composed of WUOT, Land Grant Films, The Daily Beacon, WUTK, The Volunteer Channel, Ablaze Magazine, and Lumos Media Services.

The Media Center goals

Our goals are:

  • to support and expand the existing media properties
  • encourage collaboration and community engagement across our platforms
  • more fully integrate The Media Center properties into the CCI curriculum.
