Student Projects


The Weekly Albertan is the student newspaper of the Journalism program. Updated daily throughout the semester, the website contains all the material appearing in the print edition, together with web-exclusive features and video.

 Pulse 103

Click on The Pulse 103 logo above to listen to SAIT's student radio station. Windows Media Player will open and start an audio stream within a few seconds. We think you will be impressed with the high quality of our stereo audio when played on a good speaker system.

We broadcast 24 hours a day year-round on the internet, and can also be heard in the Calgary region on Shaw Cable FM at 103.5. The Pulse 103 is operated by the Radio Option students of the Radio, Television and Broadcast News Program. Students from the Broadcast News Option provide most of the news, sports and weather coverage.

Hockey Webcast

Many of our SAIT Trojans hockey and basketball games are streamed live to the web from our campus centre. The primary video crews consist of students from the Radio, Television and Broadcast News Program's Television Option, but often they are joined by play-by-play and color commentators from RTBN Broadcast News and Radio, and by video operators from other SAIT media programs. Check at http://www.saittrojans.com/ for a schedule of streamed games. Clicking the icon when a streamed game is underway will open Windows Media Player for you to watch and hear the action! 

Click the NewsFile logo above every Friday from 4:00 - 5:00 PM MST during the winter semester, when we stream SAIT's "NewsFile" live to the internet. "NewsFile" is a news, sports, weather and features show produced by the second year Broadcast News and Television students of the Radio, Television and Broadcast News Program.
