In January of 2019, we created The Drag, our audio production house. In honor of this momentous year, your donation of $20.19 keeps The Drag up and running. Please support more student experiential learning - which means outlining episode ideas on our office’s wall-sized whiteboard - and more groundbreaking audio stories.
By the time we publish our first true-crime podcast episode, we will have worked for 66 weeks. Over those weeks, we spent hours in the audio booth to record our narration and sources, and we can’t keep doing it without your support.
Our scripts for some of our podcasts are as long as a novel. We will have each been a member of The Drag for 11,088 hours by the time we release our first true-crime podcast episode. With a donation at this level, we’ll spend a few hours with you. You’ll get an exclusive invite to our launch party in the spring - and we’ll add your name to our sponsor wall on our website.
Support students journalists and their 462 days of work. There are many days to go to produce our high-end podcasts, and we make sure each day counts. We need your support to keep our number of days growing. To say thank you, we will invite you to our launch party to meet our journalists, and we’ll add your name to our silver sponsors list on our website.
When we publish our first episode in May 2020, we are going to walk 1,056 steps to our favorite coffee shop to celebrate all the time and effort we put into The Drag. Help us reach our publishing goal by donating, and we will invite you to meet our launch party. You’ll also get your name on the gold sponsors section of our website.
Every year The Drag wants to publish a new story, which means that when one podcast is published, the next one needs to be pitched. All of our student audio directors work about 25 hours a week on their podcasts. With your donation of $2500, you can help the Drag hire more student audiophiles with amazing stories to tell.
We want the Moody College of Communication to be known as the podcast hub of academia. Our students have the ideas, the voices, the editing skills and the determination to make masterful audio stories. Help us reach our $10,000 goal by donating $5,000 and making the fundraising part effortless.
