Campus Clips: University of Miami Extends Technology Partnership with Verizon; UTPA Launches Weekly TV Show

08/10/2013

Compiled by Brandon Costa, Senior Editor, Sports Video Group

The University of Miami Department of Athletics and Verizon announced the continuation of its integrated corporate partnership, effective for the 2013-14 athletics season. The renewal allows Verizon to continue its exclusivity as the official wireless provider of UM Athletics.

Verizon will also receive a fully integrated benefits program across all sports, including an emphasis on new opportunities that further engage the two brands, providing greater access to the Hurricanes' fan base.

In addition to continuing its traditional benefits - including the use of the university's mark and logo, permanent venue signage, tickets, displays and hospitality - one of the main initiatives of the new agreement is to explore technology programs that showcase Verizon's leading edge services and features that leverage Miami's nationally-acclaimed social and digital media platforms

The University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA) Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is launching a weekly television show called Bronc Country that will take a look at recent and upcoming contests for UTPA teams while going further in-depth with feature stories about UTPA student-athletes, coaches and teams.

The show will initially air on Thursdays at 10:30 a.m. on Comcast Sports Net (CSN) Houston starting on October 10. The show will also air on McAllen Cable Network (MCN), Pharr Television, and 956Sports.com

William Patterson University Communications Department turned to Diversified Systems to upgrade its broadcast studio facilities. Diversified provided six Autoscript 17-inch TFT on-camera prompters (LED17TFT) for use within the departments' media studies and production program.

The media production track at William Patterson University introduces students to the methods and techniques used to create aural/visual messages in a variety of mass media. Sequences of introductory and advanced courses in theory and practice of film, television and radio provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the aesthetics and techniques of media production, and prepare them for professional roles in different media fields. The production facilities give students hands-on practice in two television studios, a radio station, a film production lab, a digital audio production lab and several digital video and audio editing rooms

Four ESPNU games are slated for Jan. 16, Feb. 1, Mar. 1 and Mar. 6, while ESPN2 will also host a Mar. 1 game

CBS Sports Network returns to the ice for the 2013-14 college hockey season as the exclusive national home of the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC). The Network will showcase the nation's top teams with 18 NCHC contests, as well as two games from the Atlantic Hockey Association. In addition to the regular season schedule, CBS Sports Network also will air the NCHC Tournament semifinals (March 21) and finals (March 22) from the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minn., sending the NCHC Tournament champion into the 2014 NCAA Hockey Tournament.
