Harvard Media Cooperative approves mission statement and financial reconciliation. Chair Patrick Vallaeys led unanimous approval of a revised mission statement shifting focus from cable to "media and also cable," with Station Manager Brittany Blaney-Anderson's contract renewal also passing unanimously. Finance Advisor Nick Browse resolved a major reserve discrepancy by explaining a 2026 accounting change in how Charter Revenues are withdrawn from five separate accounts; year-to-date spending totals $95,000 against a $144,000 budget, with Blaney-Anderson projecting a $10,000 underage by fiscal year-end.
The committee plans to delay the studio inauguration party until September and discuss creating promotional materials.
