Know your history |
|

In 1976, Cable 13 was
included as
an official committee of the Duke University Union, making it the first
entirely student-run television station in the nation. Founded by
visionary students seeking to make student television on
Duke’s
campus a reality, Cable 13’s beginnings were modest. At first
renting its equipment and broadcasting only in black and white, Cable
13 looked towards better days in TV. In 1979, with its first color
broadcast, Cable 13 began acquiring its own color cameras and
equipment.
Popular
show such as “Inside Duke”, “Late
Night”, and “Life on the Quad”
highlighted the
potential at the station. This creativity and popularity fueled the
station’s success.
Dramas,
documentaries, news shows,
comedies,
and sports have all been the focus of Cable 13 production. Cable 13 greeted its twentieth
anniversary in 1996 with one of its
grandest moments ever. The Cable 13 drama "Ivy Tower" was
nominated for the "Best Drama" Emmy Award by the National Association
of College Broadcasters.
After
a slight decline in production for the past couple of years, last
year's executive board made a new commitment to raise the station once
again to the forefront of college television.
With
over 100
students participating, new shows were produced along with several
sports games and news casts.
