The UNW team was able to train Daystar colleagues to install the communications equipment in the new studios and in the Shine FM radio station.

Thanks to a generous donation and a lot of perseverance from University of Northwestern in St Paul, Minnesota, newly renovated studios with upto-date equipment for communications studies are now installed at Daystar University, giving students the best learning experience possible. Daystar’s radio station, Shine FM, now has the most modern radio equipment available to broadcast high-quality Christian programs and music to the surrounding area.

A Northwestern Media team, led by Jason Sharp, visited Daystar in January of 2020 with a fresh commitment to fill the newly-constructed studios with modern communications equipment. UNW purchased the equipment with a plan to deliver and install it in April of 2020. Then the worldwide Covid pandemic closed international travel!

After four canceled trips, a group from the University of Northwestern, led by Scott Jones, Assistant Vice President – Business Operations and Technology, and Mark Seignious, Communications Department, traveled with the Daystar U.S. team and arrived in early June. Going through customs with 27 bags of equipment was interesting! They thank the Lord for His favor in getting through.

Thank you to the University of Northwestern for their investment in Daystar students and the perseverance to make this a reality!
