Following are the restrictions and conditions that the President has agreed upon. 1. Motor Pool vehicle usage would be limited to the five members of the CSUN Executive Board. 2. Interdepartmental requisitions must be signed by student officers authorized to spend CSUN funds and also signed by the CSUN Business Manager. 3.

UNIVCEORNSSITOYL IODFA TNEEDV ASDTAU, DLEANS TVSE GAS 4505 Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada 89154 Telephone (702) 739-3477 KULV INFORMATION SHEET The radio station on campus is finally operational. After many years of planning and discussion, finally something tangible has been accomplished. The station operates daily with the co-operation of Audio Visual Services from the Humanities Building. Any interested students may sign up for training sessions in MSU Room 307 or in the CSUN offices. The training sessions will be held twice weekly beginning the second week of September. There will be emphasis on the FCC Third Class Operator License as well as basic broadcast operation. The status of the actual FM station is in the hands of the FCC. The application was tendered for filing on May 19, 1978 and we are still awaiting action. During this period it will be necessary to amend portions of the application pertaining to proposed programming. More University oriented programs and features are needed. We want our radio station to be the best operation in the Las Vegas market! In regard to equipment, we (CSUN) will need to purchase between $80,000.00 and $100,000.00 worth of broadcast equipment as well as a mobile home to house our station. It has been determined it is not feasible to locate the facility in the Moyer Student Union Building. This is a great deal of money and I am naturally concerned as to ho\* it will be used most effectively. I feel student involvement and interest are key factors. An outlay of this amount of cash is not common for a student body or any organization for that matter. Another key factor to bear in mind is the fact that this station belongs to all the students attending UNLV, not just one college or department...THEREFORE GET INVOLVED! As stated above—the on-campus station is in operation and will continue running until KULV-FM is on the air. We are always looking for additional students as well as input, be it negative or positive, on our operation. As mentioned above portions of the application need to be amended,therefore7we require additional input from the student population..What kind of programming would you like to hear on YOUR radio station? This is indeed a golden opportunity for you, the students, to express your opinion on radio programming—EVERYONE ALWAYS SAYS THEY ARE TIRED OF THE SAME TEN RECORDS OVER AND OVER AGAIN ON THE COMMERCIAL STATIONS—SO—speak up and let us (CSUN) know what you would like to hear. Contact TOMMY WALKER in the student union room 307 or call 739-3877...or drop by the CSUN offices. Let's all get involved with OUR RADIO STATION!!
