The article states that it may be the only college to operate both a commerical radio and TV station. First issue is I really doubt this is a commercial radio station. While it is on the AM band (which doesn't have a non-commercial section like FM due to the history of the way radio evolved in the US), the ownership application says the owner (the school) is a not-for-profit corporation. Perhaps that was a typo and the intention was "non-commercial".
Secondly, the claim itself is erroneous - Hofstra University on Long Island, NY comes to mind of another... (unless a distinction is being made between a college and a university)... Speculation about exclusivity is "original research" and is inappropriate in Wikpidia which is probably why the article is already flagged - just because the author doesn't know that something exists doesn't prove it doesn't exist.StreamingRadioGuide (talk) 01:27, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- No reason to leave this original research, It's been removed. If it can be coorborated with verifiable 3rd party references then it can be added back. Cleaned it up a bit, removed some redudnt information, also removed some conflicting information and added some very basic references. It still needs much work.--Rtphokie (talk) 02:46, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
