February 2011: KMYY & KZRZ program director Sheila Downhour hosted a job shadowing day for St. Frederick High School students. Community marketing & PR specialist Cindy Ingram arranged this annual event to help high school students better understand the broadcast business and see firsthand the day to day inner workings of live radio.

May 2011: Opus Broadcasting has worked with the University of Louisiana at Monroe, and specifically with Dr. Henry Cole, professor of Marketing at the University, to develop a referral system between the stations and the University. Opus Broadcasting has met with Dr. Cole to discuss the stations operations and the broadcast industry in general, and encouraged Dr. Cole and the University to refer promising marketing students from the department to Opus Broadcasting for interviews, internships and industry experience. This has been a beneficial and ongoing initiative.

II.        Participation In Job Fairs or Career Fairs:

October 2011: Opus Broadcasting stations KMYY, KZRZ, KQLQ, and KXRR participated
in The University of Louisiana at Monroe’s (ULM) all majors career fair. As part of the
career fair numerous Opus Broadcasting employees manned an Opus Broadcasting booth
to represent our stations and speak with students about careers in radio. Employment
applications were on hand for graduating seniors. As part of our partnership with the
university Opus Broadcasting aired commercials for the career fair on all four of our four
stations KMYY, KXRR, KQLQ and KZRZ. Opus Broadcasting stations have already enrolled
to participate in next career fair being held at ULM on Wednesday February 15^th.

III.      On-Going Internship Program for Area College Students (§73.2080(c)(2)(v)).
This on-going semester internship program has been in place at the station for seven years. The station welcomes students from area universities and colleges who are motivated and excited about expanding their knowledge and hands-on experience in a vibrant broadcasting environment. Students must be enrolled in a program related to the broadcasting industry, and their internship must be endorsed, supported, and constantly monitored by the sponsoring university.

During the period covered by this report, Opus Broadcasting has had one student intern involved in this program. Program Director Don Robertson worked with The University of Louisiana to set up an internship program with student. This program was set up for student during spring semester.
