1948
Television Arrived on Campus
|
The first television on campus was an 8-inch screen receiver located in the Neff Hall auditorium. The set, purchased from Windsor Electric Company, received a signal from an antenna on top of the journalism arch. Students and Columbia citizens came to Neff Hall during the early evening to watch television.
This 1948 General Electric television would have been similar to the one first brought to Neff Hall (top). Television became more popular in the 1950s (bottom), especially with the founding of KOMU-TV.
