About
WKYU PBS
WKYU-PBS
signed on the air in 1989 as a non-commercial, educational
PBS station, based in Bowling Green, Kentucky and licensed
to Western Kentucky University. Today, the station serves
south central Kentucky, reaching an audience of more than
250,000 people in 11 counties and providing a full range
of programs, including locally produced informational,
public affairs and college sports programming, documentaries,
and kids' programs that provide a safe haven for children
and their parents. WKYU-PBS also provides telecourses
for those pursuing a post-secondary degree through distance
education at Western Kentucky University.
Some
exciting new on-air services for viewers are on the way,
as the station expands its digital services to include
digital multicasting and high definition (HD) broadcasts
over the next year.
The
station houses a premiere television production facility,
producing high-quality programs and videotapes for broadcast
on the station, for the university and for other clients.
WKYU-PBS enhances educational opportunities at Western
by offering WKU Broadcasting students the chance to train
alongside experienced station professionals in our production
area.
WKYU-PBS
relies on membership support from viewers, along with
other community financial support and public funding to
operate.
