A generous gift by a law firm has allowed the West Liberty University to add some new tech gears to its college of arts and communication allowing the media students to get first-hand experience of the media equipments.

A law firm in Wheeling, Bordas and Bordas has awarded gift of $75,000 to West Liberty University, West Virginia.

The monetary gift has been used to install two new high definition cameras which were put to use for the first time on Sept.22, Saturday during the football match between WLU Hilltoppers and Fairmont State University at Fairmont. Though WVU lost to Fairmont, it managed to shoot its losing match in a high end camera!

The resulting film was aired on Saturday at 10 p.m. on WLU-TV14.

Bordas and Bordas law firm said it was pleased to help broadcast students and said it 'knows the value of college and the expense involved in providing students with up-to-date programs and technology', hence asserted that it would support the university and Ohio valley community as much as possible.

WLU's College of Arts and Communication has the department of journalism, communication studies, visual arts and the department of music and theatre. Hence, the students are excited to make most of the new high end equipments added to the department.

The students and the law firm are further collaborating to produce a talk show which will be featured on WLU-TV14.

The 30-minute talk show, "Bordas and Bordas Legal Review," will be aired on a weekly basis that will focus on current legal issues. This new show will debut Monday, Sept. 24.

"I'm very happy to work with the students and the WLU broadcast program. It is our hope that our talk show will give the students a chance to practice their skills and add to their journalism experience," said Jamie Bordas, a partner in the firm who was a sports editor for the University of Notre Dame yearbook while he was in college.

As of now, 125 students and 26 crew members are active participants in the WLU broadcasting studios, which develop and produce more than 12 television shows weekly that are seen on Comcast Cable Channel 14. Moreover, WLU-TV14 is streamed live via Flash technologies and the Internet to a wide range of population, which reaches 100,000 homes every day.
