Why study broadcasting at Goshen College?

You do not wait until junior year to go on air. You do it in your first semester, surrounded by people who already know your name.

The Broadcasting major at Goshen College is a four-year bachelors degree in radio, television and digital media. You join 91.1 The Globe, named Best College Radio Station in the Nation by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System, from day one.

Whether you major or minor, you graduate with real shows, published work and at least one internship already on your resume. You learn radio and TV production, podcasting, digital storytelling, public speaking, and news writing alongside faculty who coach you closely in a small, values-centered community where students arrive and find people quickly.

      • 91.1 The Globe is the reason I am where I am today. When I set foot on campus for the first time on my tour in 2019, I knew Goshen College was the place for me. I was on air immediately, getting real world experience that propelled me into the industry. After graduating in 2024, I knew I was prepared for my career. From breaking news to feature stories, my time at The Globe made me comfortable in front of the camera. Professors Jason Samuel and Kyle Hufford trained me to be a storyteller who puts people first.
