The second annual Anchor versus WXIN basketball game did little to quench the long-time rivalry between the two largest media organizations on campus. If anything, the match only served to inspire a whole new level of competition.
The game, which was attended by more than 70 students and several alumni last Thursday night, March 20, on the center court at the Recreation Center, marked just the second time that WXIN Rhode Island College Radio and The Anchor have faced off in friendly competition in recent memory. The Anchor team, who in a narrow upset victory defeated WXIN 38-33 in a match last spring, took last week’s contest by a final score of 47-37.
KUTE, the U’s student-run radio station, got a break last night when the ASUU General Assembly unanimously passed a bill giving KUTE $4,500 in funding.
Joint Bill 14 will now go before the Associated Students of the University of Utah Senate on Thursday night. If the joint bill passes in the Senate, the money would allow the station to resume its online broadcast stream.
Utah State University will soon have its very own student-run radio station via HD radio as an HD3 channel.
