Signature Station Competition
BEA’s Student Media Advisors Signature Station Awards Competition
The Signature Station Competition is sponsored by BEA’s Student Media Advisors (SMA) interest division. The competition invites submissions of superior protocol and practices at student-run, faculty-advised college radio and television stations. The main mission is to identify and impart areas of excellence in the hands-on facilitation of station functions such as philosophical engagement, community involvement, programming arrangement, branding/logo development, student management, volunteer recruitment, and broadcast equipment. Through the Signature Station Competition, the SMA division will recognize and reward remarkable advisors, students, and stations at BEA’s annual convention held every April in Las Vegas. Each radio and television station 1st place winner will receive a check for $200.
