Sun’s up, I listen: a playlist for the spring

The Spectrum has put together a selection of songs that could be fresh and fitting for jumpstarting a spring playlist with new sounds.

How UB became home to one of the country’s first media studies programs

In 1972, Gerald O’Grady was offered a position that many academics spend their whole lives pursuing: director of the Educational Communications Center at UB. O’Grady told administrators he would accept the job — as long as UB created its own Center for Media Study and named him as its director. It was one of the first media studies departments in the nation.


The Spectrum spoke with seven UB students about their takes on various hot topics.

Culture PerSPECtives: Is Matt Rife funny?

In each edition of Culture Perspectives, The Spectrum will ask UB students seven questions that survey their observations, opinions and beliefs to help us understand our cultural climate. We’ll ask questions about the media students are consuming, where they stand with their own generation and more. One question will always tackle a hot topic in our culture — whether local, national or global.
