Our Future Is In Their Hands

A whole herd of communications and journalism students from Texas A&M University recently received front row seats to some of L.A. media’s hot spots, courtesy of their hosts at Benztown. Each summer, Texas A&M Professor Billy McKim takes a group of students across the U.S. to meet communications and journalism professionals and to collaborate on projects with the pros.

While in Los Angeles, Benztown arranged for the group to tour their state-of-the-art studios in Glendale, CA, before taking them to visit KTLA-TV, CBS Radio’s KROQ and AMP Radio, the CBS Radio cluster in Riverside-San Bernardino and All Access Music Group in Malibu. Benztown also provides access to its full catalog of highest quality production libraries to Texas A&M University broadcasting students on an ongoing basis at no charge.

Here’s the whole crew after their exhaustive-yet-rewarding tour of Benztown’s palatial studios in Glendale — Top row, (l-r): Bonnie Denes, Cammy Linn, Johnnie Gordon, Tom Baker, Sydney Burgoyne, Masa Patterson, Dave “Chachi” Denes, Tori Richards, Kaylan Millis, Billy McKim, Shane Drasin. Bottom row, (l-r): Justin Case, Danielle Gutierrez, Robyn Perez, Ashlie James, Taylor Clark, Corrie Ritter and Kevin Horton.
