Harvard Undergraduate Television (HUTV) is the Harvard College Student television station broadcasting to the Internet.
HUTV carries original, student-produced content from eleven shows and from individual Harvard students. HUTV shows include Ivory Tower, On Harvard Time (an award-winning comedy news show), and video reports by The Harvard Crimson (Harvard's daily student newspaper). The network has a full production studio and post-production editing facilities in Pforzheimer House, a Harvard dormitory.
HUTV, under the guidance of co-President Derek Flanzraich, replaced then-defunct Harvard-Radcliffe Television (HRTV) on April 6, 2009, inheriting HRTV's shows and staff.
In 1975, Bob Doyle who was then working as a research fellow in Harvard's Department of Visual and Environmental Studies, founded the Harvard-Radcliffe Film Workshop (HRFW), which offered filmmaking instruction and film screenings in the Morse Music Library in the basement of Pforzheimer House, which was then known as North House.
In the 1980s, Doyle helped form the Desktop Video Group to "support undergraduate video production and television distribution" at Brown and Harvard Universities.
In 1992, Emily Brodsky founded Harvard-Radcliffe Television (HRTV). That same year, Ivory Tower, the Ivy League's oldest soap opera, became one of HRTV's first shows.
