"AUC Sessions," a mini music concert program that highlights student talents from the AUC;
"Blackout," a student lifestyles talk show; "The Review," an industry awards review show; and clips of various campus activities.
CAU-TV, which provides practical experience for the university鈥檚 relevant academic programming, has four full-time team members, including Bryan Jenkins, who is the general manager and the official supervisor to student volunteers. In addition, there is one work study student currently, and approximately 30 student volunteers, though the station鈥檚 reserve roster sometimes expands to about 75.

He attended the awards ceremony, adding, 鈥淚t was a special moment, a special push, that reiterates the importance of learning, effort, and drive for perfection of coverage!鈥�
