The Roy H. Park School of Communications is one of five schools at Ithaca College, in Ithaca, New York. The school is named after media executive Roy H. Park, who lived in Ithaca and who served on the Board of Trustees at Ithaca College for many years.

As one of the first schools of communications in the US, it runs the first and longest-running student-operated TV cable channel (ICTV) and offers students access to studios and more than three million dollars of portable and lab equipment. It has been named a top school for film, journalism, media and entertainment by Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, The Princeton Review and more.[1][2][3]

In addition to its campus facilities in Ithaca, it runs the Pendleton Center in Los Angeles where students can study and engage in internships for a semester. Students also may study away at the college's center in London and through a newly established New York City program.

Diane Gayeski, an alumna of the school and a faculty member since 1979, currently serves as its dean.[4]

History

Ithaca College first began offering courses in radio in the 1930s and a degree program in 1947. With the advent of mass media, the focus began shifting to television and film. The Bachelor of Science in Cinema Studies and Photography was established in the late 1960s. In 1969, the communications programs were formally organized into a division within the college before becoming the present-day School of Communications in the 1973-74 academic year. It was renamed after Roy H. Park in 1989. Timeline

The Ithacan is available in print every Thursday morning and online.[8] The Ithacan and its staff have won many major collegiate journalism awards, most notably, the Associated Collegiate Press' National Pacemaker Awards (widely considered the Pulitzer Prize of collegiate journalism) and many New York State Press Association awards.

Ithaca College Radio

Ithaca College is also home to two student-operated radio stations.

92 WICB is an FCC-licensed station that operates at 4100 Watts at 91.7 FM. Programming is also streamed live on its website, through the iHeartRadio app, and WICB's iOS app. The majority of its programming falls under the modern rock category, with a variety of specialty programming also available. While broadcasting modern rock, the station is run similarly to a commercial modern rock station, with the inclusion of playlists planned by the programming and music departments that include leeway for listener requests and DJ choices.
