Hello,
The News and Public Affairs Department is seeking volunteers.
Would you like to get into news reporting? Are you passionate about a particular beat, like education, politics, transit, or environmental justice? The Morning Magazine is a great place for that.
Is long-format interviewing on a range of topics more in line with your interests? Ask about hosting opportunities for Metro or A Public Affair.
The News and Public Affairs Department tends to have greater training capacity for Boulder-area volunteers in the mornings and Denver-area volunteers in the afternoons.
Volunteer opportunities can be roughly categorized into these opportunities, with options to be flexible or do more than one of these.
Headlines Volunteer: Help research, write, and edit headlines and other news copy for production.
Production Assistant: Record and edit audio for programming and announcements.
On-Air Producer: Learn to interview guests or help host news and public affairs programs.
Board Operator: Operate the studio equipment to ensure quality during live programming. May include answering phones and screening calls during call-in shows.
Digital Content Coordinator: Help publish news stories on KGNU.org and/or help maintain our social media presence.
Contact the News Department at newsdept@kgnu.org for details.
