The University of Calicut is planning to launch its own internet radio broadcast from August 15.
Titled ‘Radio CU’, the venture is expected to serve as a platform that links the activities on the campus with the world outside. According to Syndicate member M. Manoharan, the objective is to take the voice of the university to the people. “Information related to the university, including those related to the research works being taken up there, and the events happening on the campus, will be broadcast. All the arrangements for the launch are in place,” he said. It is learnt that the authorities are trying to get a celebrity guest for the inaugural ceremony.
