Three out of I0 North Carolina families
watch state-supported public television,
according to a recent survey conducted
jointly by the UNC School of Journalism
and the UNC-TV Network.
Dr. Robert L. Stevenson, an assistant
professor of journalism here, said the figures
for overall public television viewing are
slightly lower in North Carolina than in
other states. However, he said weekly
viewing patterns are similar to those in other
states.
The eight-station UNC-TV Network
reaches 1 3 per cent of the North Carolina
homes on a weekly basis, the survey showed.
This compares similarly to results from
surveys Stevenson conducted in Mississippi
and South Dakota during July 1975.
In South Dakota, 16 per cent of the
households with televisions watched public
television weekly, and the Mississippi figure
was 15 per cent.
The survey also showed that only 52 per
cent of the North Carolina families were
even aware of public broadcasting. The
corresponding figures for South Dakota and
Mississippi were each 65 per cent.
Dale Rhodes, director of audience services
for the network attributed the public
ignorance of public television to reception

know of
problems with UHF channels, public
television's narrowly targeted programming
and lack of promotion.
Six of the state's eight public stations are
on UHF frequencies. Rhodes said viewers
tend to be unaware of UHF channels. Some
people "do not know they have a U H F tuner
on their television," he said.
Stevenson also noted that children's
programs and cultural programs were most
popular. The survey indicated that Sesame
Street and Masterpiece Theatre were the
most frequently watched programs
broadcast by UNC-TV.
Rhodes said the survey was designed to
determine how many people watch public
television in their homes. He said 40 percent
of UNC-TV's programming is directed
toward evening viewing, with daytime
programming geared to educational and
specialized programming.
The survey results will be used to
determine viewing patterns for the eight
stations so that effective public information
campaigns can be designed, Rhodes said.
"We will do a market-by-market, county-by-county
breakdown of this, and it will be
helpful in spending what advertising money
we have and deciding where we can allocate
what resources we have," he said.
Rhodes also said programs such as teacher
workshops, agricultural extension shows,
formal education courses for adults and class

instruction on the elementary and secondary
school levels do not interest the general
public viewer. "Because the programs are so
diversified, it requires pin-point accuracy to
watch what you want to see," he said.
The network's annual budget is about $2.3
million. Of that amount, approximately
$200,000 comes from a grant by the semi
public Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
The remainder is appropriated by the North
Carolina General Assembly.
Only 55,000 is spent on advertising and
promotion.
The survey revealed that education is a
major factor in the audience's public
television awareness and viewing.

education, 19 per cent knew about public
television and 3 per cent watched weekly. Of
those interviewed having some high school
education, half were aware of public
television and 8 per cent watched weekly. Of
those individuals with some college
education, 73 per cent knew of public
television and 24 per cent watched weekly.
The survey consisted of telephone
interviews in late October with 622 adults
randomly selected to represent the entire
state population. Phone numbers were
dialed using a system to include unlisted and
unpublished numbers.

distinct cultures, he said.
The Circle is beginning a library of
contemporary books and papers dealing

be an alternative to the campus libraries,
which, he said, contain information that is
dated or "deals w ith Indian life only from the
viewpoint of an anthropologist."

organization Friends of University
Network Television did the interviewing.
The 15-20 per cent of North Carolina
homes without telephones were excluded.
"They (people without telephones) tend for
the most part to be at the bottom end of the
social-educational-economic spectrum and
would be very unlikely to watch public
television," Stevenson said. For that reason,
he added, overall familiarity and viewing
figures are probably somewhat high.
Stevenson called the poll "as good a
survey sample technique as reasonable
competent professionals could provide." It
has a 95 per cent chance of being accurate to
within six percentage points, he said.
Other Indian circle plans include
researching the possibility of implementing a
Native American Studies Program here,
organizing an orientation program for new
Indian students and developing an
educational program for North Carolina
schools that would give students a look at
traditional and contemporary Indian
culture.

The African and Afro-American
curriculum offers a Ghana Exchange
Program, in which students can spend their
junior year at the University of Ghana in
Accra, African Studies Director Roberta
Ann Dunbar said Monday.
Explaining the need for the Curriculum
for African and Afro-American Studies,
which was established in 1969, Afro
American Studies Director Sonja Stone
said, "Clearly the area of Afro-American
Studies has been neglected in the past by
academic institutions."

expressed complete confidence in the job his
