About Radio and Television Services
Indiana University’s Radio and Television Services—IURTVS—brings a wide range of educational services to the academic community at IU, the residents of Indiana, and to the rest of the United States.
In addition, IURTVS provides the surrounding area with radio and television programming that ranges from local public affairs and news to national programming from National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting System (PBS).
IURTVS is housed in the Radio/TV Center on the Bloomington campus of Indiana University. The building includes a $7.5 million addition of 19,000 square feet that adds principally classrooms and offices for the IU Department of Telecommunications and for the Virtual Indiana Classroom. The facility, as a part of the Multi-campus Technology Project, is being used for distance education and links all of IU’s campuses and other instructional sites.

Media can make people more aware of the world around them, more informed, and more challenged. At their best, IU Radio/Television Services media teach and touch. Our values and activities are born of the purposes and hopes of Indiana University. We try to raise the level of public discourse and build community.
For us, this work is a public trust. Our local and nationwide audiences are reached—with original and national programming—through radio, television, the Internet, DVDs, and emerging technologies. We help listeners and viewers discover. We aspire to inspire.
