Student newspaper launches first podcast

- October 09, 2008

NORTH ADAMS – Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts’ student newspaper, The Beacon, has launched its first online podcast from the newspaper’s Web site. The podcast offers highlights of the week’s news on campus, including sports, the arts, entertainment and headline news. According to Beacon Web Manager Patrick Moran ’10, the podcast is part of the Beacon’s goal of media convergence.

“I felt as though audio podcasting was the simplest way to get started, but it still would be a great way to get a different form of media integrated with the print,” Moran said. “The Beacon team was able to post a podcast in only a couple of weeks. I am hoping that my other personal goals for the Beacon – video, breaking news, larger readership online – can be accomplished before the end of the semester.”

The podcast can be accessed by going to www.mclabeacon.com and clicking on the “podcast” icon, at the top of the left sidebar. The podcast also is streamed through MCLA’s radio station, WJJW. For more information, go to www.mcla.edu.
