Pitt to the Point is a live one-hour news/magazine program that airs every Friday from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. (EST).
Pitt to the Point is an advanced practicum course, that airs on the University of Pittsburgh YouTube channel, but also at noon (EST) on KDKA-TV’s streaming platform CBSN.
Pitt to the Point will focus on events and activities that take place at the University of Pittsburgh, including all of its branch campuses, and the City of Pittsburgh. In addition, we will also have National and International guests and stories. We very much welcome story ideas and suggestions. We would like to be a conduit for disseminating information.
Students participating in the course do have broadcast experience on both the academic level and the professional level. Positions on Pitt the Point will rotate after 4 weeks, with the final airing taking place on Friday, April 21st (8 a.m. to 9 a.m. EST).
During the 15 weeks, our Pitt to the Point News Directors will be Maggie McLeod, Michelle Lichtstein, Jaimé Ely, and Josh Burn.
