I like broadcasting live sports and being on my show Down for the Count. Basically STV is a great orgainzation, it helps you meet alot of great people and is just alot of fun all around!
Production Manager
CASEY HOOKER
Casey is the current production manager for Student Television. He has been involved with STV for a while, so he knows the ropes well, but now he has a new challenge in being the production manager. Casey is in the STV office often, trying hard to learn the ropes as fast as he can, and so far, he is doing a great job.
Sports Producer
Troy Halverson
I love sports. That’s all there is to it. My name is Troy Halverson and I am the sports director at Student Television. This is my second year as the sports director, but I have been on staff here at STV for three years now. I enjoy playing sports just as much as I love talking about them. I am a huge football freak! My all time favorite player would have to be Robert Brooks….That Brett Favre isn’t too bad of a player either. I also enjoy basketball and golf. I grew up in a family that consisted of My mother, sister, and me. But I think that is why I love sports so much, because it wasn’t just thrown at me when I was younger, I went out and taught myself about different sports and before I knew it, I couldn’t stop talking about them. If there is an odd day and I am not around Student Television, I enjoy hanging out with my family and friends, watching movies, or just being outside. I really look forward to this year with STV and I think as a staff we can do a lot that we never dreamed of doing in the past. STV is a great way to get involved in broadcasting and I definitely recommend it if you look to get into news/broadcasting after college.
News Producer
Erin Jasperson
My name is Erin Jasperson and I'm STV's senior news producer alongside Tracy Berg. My job is to oversee our news shows, which includes writing scripts, timing out shows, and scheduling talent and crews. We put on two live newscasts every week and I enjoy volunteering for other STV productions as well! This is my second year on the executive staff and my third being involved in STV. I will be graduating this spring with a degree in communication and I look forward to applying everything I've learned through the organization to my future career!
News Producer
Tracy Berg
Hello, my name is Tracy Berg. I am currently a sophomore and one of the STV news producers. This is my first year on exec staff and I really love everything about it- especially the cool people I get to work with practically everyday! I am (almost) a communication major with an emphasis in television production. I also have a minor in writing. When I grow up I want to start out working at television station and just see where life takes me from there!

Promotions Director
Heidi orchard
I have been involved with STV for less than a year...it will be a year in the Novemberish area. I am the promotions director so I think of creative new ways to promote STV. I promote all shows and events that STV is involved with in some way shape or form. One of my main focus for this year is to find and do some events that will actually give us income, and just getting more involved and better know in the community more than just the campus. I really enjoy my job so far because I just get to go with my ideas. I am really open to any ideas that people have and am willing to help them achieve it for the good the of station. Because my job itself I really looooove reporting and editing for news. and I like producing packages and watching them on air....makes me feel good that I did it all by myself. the friends that I have made through this are awesome too! all the great STV memories.....sigh.
I would also like to make it known that I am very VERY open to ideas for the station. So if anyone has a remote idea for anything (show, promo, revenue project, etc) that they want to get done, just to let me know and we can work for it!
Web Weaver
Corey Scharrer
This is my second year as the webmaster (web weaver as they like to call it) for STV. Last year, I joined halfway through the second semester, and by then it was too late to do any major adjustments to the STV website. However, this year I have completely redesigned the site from scratch, and I have added much needed live streaming functionality to it, as well as updated and useful content. My goal is to have the site all done and polished up by the end of the first semester of the 2007 year, and to only have to make useful updates and adjustments in the second semester, hopefully leaving me more time to get involved with the television aspect of STV. Just because I'm a web design geek doesn't mean I can't learn anything!
