Half-hour video showcases professor’s work

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – It’s the season for television premieres and Marshall University’s cable channel 25 is having one of its own.

Marshall Journalism Professor Dan Hollis has won numerous awards for his videos showcasing some of the people, events and places of West Virginia.  Now he has put clips of several of those videos together in a retrospective commemorating his first 10 years at Marshall.

The 30-minute show titled “A Collection” will air on Comcast Channel 25 at 7:30 p.m. Monday through Friday after “We Are Marshall Today” starting Monday, Sept. 21.

“We just thought it would be a fun thing to do, to go back and look at some of my favorite stories,” Hollis said. “I certainly had fun remembering some of those times and people as I put this show together.”

Some of the clips included in the showcase are the winning moment of the 1999 Mid-American Conference championship football game, a look at Bridge Day and the most recent video about this spring’s Vandalia Gathering.

The show can also be found on youtube.com/HerdVideo.
