Student Television Stations - Q30

Q30 is the official Student television station of Quinnipiac University, located in Hamden, Connecticut. The station broadcasts closed circuit on Channel 30 to both the Mount Carmel and York Hill campuses during the Fall and Spring semesters. Q30 broadcasts the majority of its programs out of the Ed McMahon Mass Media Center, which is located in Quinnipiac University's School of Communications. The organization is open to students of all majors, and all members have the opportunity to work in the high-definition studio on state of the art equipment.

History
Q30 began its life as QCTV (Quinnipiac College Television). After the school became a university it was renamed Quest 30, standing for "Quinnipiac University Exceptional Student Television". The Q30 name and logo was adopted in the fall of 2002.

Programming
Q30 regularly airs five student-produced shows every week:

    Q30 News, a live evening news program
    The Morning After, a live morning talk show
    Sports Paws, Bobcat Blitz, and Q30 Gameday, which offer complete coverage of university sporting activities.

In addition, the station also airs student government meetings, as well as other events that occur at Quinnipiac University. Q30 also receives programming from the Zilo TV college music network and the National Lampoons college comedy network.
