ktru’s mission is to educate listeners through eclectic, progessive, otherwise unexposed programming. since the broadcast media's commitment to localism usually extends to sports, weather, and "if it bleeds it leads" material, we attempt to focus on underrepresented Houston issues, communities, and perspectives. so far we've talked about science, politics, technology, history, medicine, and faculty diversity. our show broadcasts the voices of community and rice leaders. please email our news director, carina, at tobias at ktru dot org, with questions/ comments/ story ideas.
