LIVESTREAMING IMPROVEMENTS … The Golden Bear Sports Network (GBSN) was awarded a $2,313.45 grant from the Bryan Area Foundation. The monies will be used to purchase a Starlink satellite internet service ensuring reliable connectivity for livestreaming of Bryan High School sports and arts events. This will enhance broadcast quality, improve the viewer experience, and provide better learning opportunities for student broadcasters. It will also allow viewers living out of town or unable to attend to watch online. The grant will cover the first year of service, and future sponsorships on the network will pay for subsequent years.
