COMM ALUMNI NEWSLETTER
OCTOBER
Our SAU COMM Alumni Facebook group continues to grow. It now has more
than 300 members. There are TV11 and KALA groups on Facebook as well.
Check them out as another source for photos and video clips.
Every two years we try to take a “Fine Arts and Communications Tour”
to New York City. Our next scheduled visit to the Big Apple is January
3-7, 2010. We again hope to meet up with our alumni and friends in radio,
television and theater.
KALA is now at 10,000 watts full-time as of mid-afternoon, October 28.

Sept 2-13, I was volunteering in Peru. It was an adventure that I will
never forget… I realized we take a lot of things for granted…
I hope through my journal you will be able to see what I saw, and experience
what I experienced. Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers…”
