C-Span Bus will be at Wichita State Friday, Oct. 27
The C-SPAN bus has been traveling the country for the last 24 years in partnership with cable and satellite providers to visit schools and attend community events. Through interactive tools and C-SPAN representatives, visitors to the bus can learn about the unique public service television network in producing unique non-commercial, editorially-balanced, non-biased coverage of public affairs and political events and Cox Communications commitment to funding C-SPAN's operations.
C-SPAN Representatives will also be gathering video responses from visitors as part of its "Voices from the States" -- an opportunity for visitors to share viewpoints on state issues and what they think Washington leaders should do to address local concerns. These can be seen on our Twitter page and sometimes appear on one of our three cable networks.
The new high-tech, interactive C-SPAN Bus includes these upgraded resources:
- Access to an exclusive interactive experience available on 11 large-screen tablets featuring C-SPAN programming and myriad of political and educational resources
- A smart TV and classroom area for conversations with students and teachers
- A high-definition TV production studio for taped and live programming
- A 360-degree video station featuring C-SPAN's unfiltered coverage of high-profile events and insightful, behind-the-scenes tours of U.S. landmarks
- A D.C.-themed selfie station where visitors can share their bus experience through social media
