As announced by Hochschulradio Aachen, on July 17, six university radio stations from North Rhine-Westphalia will review and take stock of the summer semester in a joint broadcast. This is the second collaborative project between the university radio stations from Aachen, Bochum, Bonn, Dortmund, Duisburg/Essen, and Siegen. The first joint broadcast in April 2020 focused on the start of the “digital semester.” A recording of the broadcast is available at: Campus NRW: Semesterstart.
The second issue will deal with questions such as: How did students and lecturers experience the digital semester? Was there any financial support available? And what will the upcoming winter semester look like? The joint program will be broadcast on Friday, July 17, between 3 and 6pm.
The joint program will be hosted by Hochschulradio Aachen and will be broadcast by the six contributing stations simultaneously. According to a press release, the collaboration is also intended as a statement of solidarity in times of the Coronavirus crisis and shows that despite the current difficult situation we find ourselves in, there are opportunities for launching creative projects.
