Temple University Television earned 15 nominations across seven categories in the 2026 Mid-Atlantic Regional College Production Awards.
The honors recognize the work of 61 Temple University students, faculty and staff in news, sports, long-form storytelling, arts and culture, and on-air talent. The breadth of the nominations reflects the range of hands-on production opportunities available through TUTV, Klein College of Media and Communication’s student-run television station.
“This recognition is a testament to the extraordinary talent, dedication and collaboration of our students,” said Joe Schreiber, general manager of TUTV. “Every one of these productions represents countless hours of reporting, producing, shooting, editing and storytelling. We are incredibly proud of our students and grateful to the faculty and professional staff who mentor them every step of the way.”
The awards will be presented during the 44th Annual Mid-Atlantic Regional Emmy® Awards ceremony on Saturday, Sept. 26, 2026, at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. The ceremony will honor professional and collegiate storytellers from throughout the region.
