Colorado State punts on student media

Colorado State University is setting up a nonprofit corporation to publish all its student media, the Rocky Mountain Collegian, College Avenue Magazine, KCSU radio and CTV television. It's signed a contract to pay a half-million each year for the rights to use them on campus. Interesting: the contract calls for 350 student journalists, according to the press release from the university. Several questions are unanswered, including what happens if a student pub attacks the university or how it will actually work (see the links for what's been announced so far). You can find a lot by Googling (OK, I am using Googling as a verb). The university press release is here: http://newsinfo.colostate.edu/index.asp?url=news_item_display&news_item_id=454581118; the Collegian's story is here: http://media.www.collegian.com/media/storage/paper864/news/2008/05/12/News/Student.Media.Set.To.Seperate.From.Csu-3378343.shtml
