Waldorf College has you covered. Numerous audio and video presentations featuring campus events such as football and soccer games, plays, convocations and student-produced radio shows are now available on iTunes U.
In general, the site allows colleges and universities to share content publicly at the iTunes Store and is a perfect way for students, faculty and staff to keep current on campus events using their mobile phones or personal computers.
To access the Waldorf page, users must first download and install iTunes at Apple.com/itunes. At the iTunes page, search for Waldorf College. Here is a link to the site: http://itunes.apple.com/us/institution/waldorf-college/id397156346. There you will find seven categories under "Experience Waldorf": Academic Enrichment, Athletics, Fine Arts, Soccer, Wal-TV, SWAT and KZOW Radio. All Waldorf content is free.
Ian Fuchs, a media specialist in the Communications Department, helped create the site. He said more material will be added to the site each week that he will announce periodically via Facebook. Fuchs worked with staff from the Institutional Technologies and Communications Department to get the audio and video on the Internet. Call Fuchs at Ext. 8242 or e-mail ian.fuchs@waldorf.edu. if you would like to add content to the library.

Waldorf College is one of more than 800 colleges and universities that have active iTunes U sites. About half of these institutions -- including Stanford, Yale, MIT, Oxford and UC Berkeley -- distribute their content publicly at the iTunes Store.
Universities, such as Stanford, use iTunes U to provide students with class lectures and other materials. Looking long term, Fuchs hopes to start providing such content on the Waldorf site.
