Students

Telly Award Telecom students have received a Telly Award for their 2012 production of "Every 15 Minutes," the national program that warns of the dangers of driving while impaired.
 
The "Fuzion Fitness" production crew recently had an opportunity to do something they've wanted to do for some time: use the remote TV truck to record the show on location in an outdoor setting.
