Carpe Diem episode 

CARPE DIEM is an award-winning, weekly half-hour magazine show aired on Comcast and Cablevision in northern New Jersey. Awarded the CTN CAPE Award for Best Series and three Gracie Awards for student productions, among others over the years, Carpe Diem has covered a wide range of subjects of interest to New Jersey citizens as well as topics featuring campus activities. The show has also featured celebrity guests such as Ernestine Schlant Bradley, former governor Christine Todd Whitman, anchor Steve Adubato, jazz singer Ruth Brown, and Tony award-winner and University alumna Melba Moore.

In addition to providing programming for the northern New Jersey television community, Carpe Diem provides Television majors with rigorous weekly production assignments that simulate those of the broadcasting profession. Over the semester, students produce a minimum of fifteen programs. Apart from producing their own works, it is not uncommon for students to have acquired production credits for as many as 20-30 additional programs by the time they graduate.

Carpe Diem reaches about a half-million households in New Jersey and is produced at the DuMont Television Center.

COVERING MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, Part One

How has baseball reporting changed in the Digital Age? This episode features Baseball Hall of Fame MLB.com reporter Paul Hagen (2012's only living inductee), Russ Salzberg, Sports Director of WNYW and WWOR-TV, and
freelance writer Jeff Bradley discussing how the lives and work of baseball reporters have changed: working without downtime, having less access to players, and advantages and disadvantages of Twitter, Facebook and blogging. The show was part of a panel hosted and taped at the Yogi Berra Museum.

This episode was produced and hosted by Marc Rosenweig, professor and coordinator of TV and Digital Media in the School of Communication and Media, and directed by TV major Regan Brown.
