What is TigerTV?

TigerTV is Trinity’s campus television station that is cablecast 24/7 on campus channel 14.1 using the latest in HD television equipment. Established in 1996, this closed-circuit television station is a professional broadcast organization, which offers a realistic perspective on a multitude of career objectives spanning communication, broadcasting, public relations, business, marketing, management, accounting, art, digital art, interactive multimedia, and many other disciplines at the University, which Trinity students may pursue.  Utilizing a “learning by doing and teaching” method, students learn from an experienced staff and student crew. The station is intended to supplement regular television production, business, and other communication-related courses by offering additional time to apply techniques learned in those classes. TigerTV is often viewed as an “in-house internship” opportunity for Trinity students. Experience with TigerTV is a valuable asset and provides important additions to a graduate’s resume and portfolio no matter what career path is selected.
