Broadcasting from Studio B on the LBC Campus
The Lancaster Bible College radio station helps develop practical skills and cultivate hands-on learning experiences for our college students. The student-run radio station is hosted on LBC’s website and can be streamed from almost anywhere in the world. It features a wide variety of contemporary Christian music, courtesy of local Christian music station WJTL, which plays between the student-produced radio broadcasts. The on-air setup is also modeled after WJTL’s studio in nearby Manheim, Pa., and has the ability to broadcast over WJTL’s airwaves for special occasions.
Radio broadcasting is one of several ways Communication majors can enhance their skills. “Whether students are interested in pursuing a career in radio or not, there are many practical skills that are developed through their time on air,” said the Director of the Communication Major. “Students learn valuable skills in interviewing, public speaking, communication technology, FCC rules and regulations, scheduling, and marketing and promotion of their shows, just to name a few.”
