Personnel Committee, 1965-1978

The Rochester Area Educational Television Association (RAETA) records document the organization's efforts to establish Rochester’s first public broadcasting station and offer a glimpse into the burgeoning world of educational television in the 1950s and 60s. The records illustrate the complex and tedious process of obtaining FCC licensing for a public broadcasting station, as well as the legal procedures involved. The collection spans the years from 1951 to 1979, with the bulk of the records dating between the years 1962 and 1967. The records include information on committee activities, membership, programming and program guides, FCC reports, transcriptions of FCC hearings, board minutes, exhibits, official dockets, the Channel 13 campaign, Channel 21, and WXXI-FM.
