Capital CampaignKUT On The Move: David AlvarezKUT’s new home is coming to life on the northeast corner of Guadalupe and Dean Keeton (26th street) as part of the UT College of Communication’s Belo Center for New Media. Everything is on schedule and coming together beautifully. The entire KUT staff will be packing up and moving across the street this July.
Ahead of the big move, we thought we’d give you the opportunity to see and get to know some of the people behind the voices you enjoy on KUT. Meet Technical Producer David Alvarez. You probably don’t realize it but you hear David’s voice everyday on KUT and he’s making the move to the new KUT Public Media Studios.

Happy Friday!
We received an e-mail earlier this week from a listener asking why it takes so long to receive a thank you gift. I guess the best and quickest answer is that it takes awhile because at KUT we do not order thank you gifts until after the Membership Drive ends. Typically, our drive ends...
