Ithaca College Television (ICTV) provides original, student-produced programming to approx. 26,000 households subscribing to Time Warner Cable in Tompkins County, New York.[1] Additionally a live webcast and video-on-demand are available on the website. ICTV, presently on Educational Access channel 16, has operated from Ithaca College on local cable tv since 1958. Since most of the county does not receive over the air television signals, ICTV was created to provide community-oriented public affairs and entertainment programming for the Ithaca area cable audience. Productions make use of the Park School of Communications' television facilities, which include two television studios and a master control center that switches programs directly onto the cable channel.

The organization is student operated with a fulltime staff general manager who oversees operations. Typically 18-20 program units, some ongoing and some newly created, and each headed by a student producer, recruit cast and crew members at the beginning of Fall and Spring semesters. 250-300 students volunteer each term. Most major in communications, but the organization is open to any major. The flagship program, "Newswatch 16", in production under different names for over forty years, is now a tri-weekly half-hour primetime newscast that has won a number of student journalism awards over the years, including a College Emmy.
