Description
Provide informational, educational, cultural and entertainment services that make the highest and best use of media, meet community expectations, and meet reasonable standards of stable financial operations.
From 1983 until 1996, this region’s public television and radio licenses were held and managed by a state university 200 miles away in Tampa, Florida.
Finally, in 1996, the broadcast licenses were transferred to Florida Gulf Coast University, a new public university that was being built to serve Southwest Florida’s Gulf and Everglades region. The stations’ call letters were changed to WGCU-TV/FM, and a new state-of-the-art broadcast facility was built as part of the new university’s campus.
