The Cameron University communications, English, and foreign language (CEFL) department takes pride in their student-produced media. All of the student shows can be found on CU’s Roku channel called “CU on the Other Side.”
Before the Roku channel, student shows were streamed on a closed circuit channel on campus that only allowed the shows to be shown on the CU TVs located in the dorms and other buildings on campus.
In 2021, the CEFL department decided to move their student-produced shows onto a Roku channel to increase viewership.
“CU On The Other Side” features many shows that are all produced at Cameron University.
The shows include “The Aggie Lineup,” “The Patch Notes 2.0,” “CU News,” and “Pop Axe Culture.” The channel also includes a game show that began in the spring 2022 semester called “The Wheel of Scholarship.”
Episodes of the shows are filmed and added to the Roku channel each week.
