Duke Union Community Television

Duke Union Community Television (Cable 13) is the Student television station at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Cable 13 functions as a portion of the Duke University Union and is one of the first all student-run television stations in the nation. Founded in 1976 by Duke seniors Jed Daly and David Frey, who raised an initial budget of $20,000 from the Sloan Foundation, Cable 13 students have gone on to win four Telly Awards for "excellence in college broadcasting." Although Duke offers no major in communications and Cable 13 has been moderately funded, it was the largest student-run television station in the United States at least until 2003.
