KUAT COMMUNICATIONS GROUP
Fiscal Year 2007 Report with Audited Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
Dear friends,
In the land grant tradition of Arizona’s first university, The University of Arizona, the KUAT Communications Group
(KUAT) provides information, entertainment and educational outreach across multiple distribution platforms. Our stations have the unique ability to connect thousands of Southern Arizonans instantly, to their community and the world
through the intellectual and creative resources of The University of Arizona.
KUAT has spent the last 48 years solidifying its reputation as a high-quality, trusted source for lifelong learning. When
limited federal support for the operation of public stations began in 1968, the community and the University reached
a turning point – it was clear that media could be used to enhance everyday learning opportunities. Today, KUAT
is undergoing another historic turning point. A nearly half-century of experience in creating and delivering quality
programming and educational services coupled with the entrance into the digital delivery age, gives this enterprise
new opportunities to bring learning to life for thousands in Arizona and millions globally, all under the moniker of The
University of Arizona.
With the goal of increasing organizational and fiscal efficiencies, this year KUAT implemented staff reorganizations
that focus our human resources into areas of core competencies. Today, all content producers collaborate in a single
workgroup to provide better in-depth coverage of news and community issues and to increase the diversity of topics
on all media platforms: television, radio and the web. Similarly, engineering and technology positions work together to
increase operational efficiency and productivity. The group’s development division was also restructured to separate
membership, underwriting and major giving functions to allow our staff to focus in specific and discrete areas of support.
It has also been a year of transition for the KUAT Public Advisory Board as the Board moves from a passive advisory
role to an active advisory and development role, working to help the organization retain existing (and attract new)
supporters. Board members have provided immeasurable help in connecting KUAT leadership to the communities
served by the organization’s broadcast, cable and online resources. Input and support from the Board has been invaluable to KUAT in the past and will become even more vital over the next several years as the industry and KUAT
complete the transition from analog to digital broadcasting, providing new opportunities for expanded programs and
services for the community.
In a mutually beneficial partnership, The University of Arizona, station management and the community work together
to ensure the stations and services provided by the KUAT Communications Group meet the needs and interests of
viewers and listeners throughout Southern Arizona.
Sincerely yours,
Jack Gibson
Director & General Manager, KUAT Communications Group
Leslie Tolbert, Ph.D.
Vice President for Research, Graduate
Studies and Economic Development,

A MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER
This has been a year of continued growth and opportunity for the KUAT Communications Group. While remaining
focused on our mission as the public service media source for southern Arizona, new management continued a
reorganization of resources around areas of core competencies, which has allowed KUAT to sustain the process
begun last fiscal year of redefining itself. The organization remains committed to high quality, award-winning
programming on the local, national and global level. New mission, vision and values statements were adopted by the
organization and endorsed by its Public Advisory Board as a part of KUAT’s participation in the Corporation for
Public Broadcasting (CPB) Major Giving Initiative. “The KUAT Communications Group informs, inspires and
connects our community by bringing people and ideas together.”
A consolidation of content producers from our television, radio and multimedia departments, which began last year,
continues to provide greater opportunities to capture and report stories for and about southern Arizona more broadly
and efficiently. In addition to our nightly news magazine, Arizona Illustrated, and weekly bilingual public affairs
series, Reflexiones Domingo, KUAT premiered the 17th season of the multi-Emmy Award-winning
nature/travel/adventure series The Desert Speaks, with a special preview kick-off event for local supporters at the
world-renowned Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. The series was distributed to public television stations nationwide
in HDTV. The station also produced a documentary and oral history project entitled Tucson Remembers “The War
Years,” which provided Tucson veterans of WWII an opportunity to tell their respective stories. KUAT’s cable
television service, The UA Channel, featured numerous series and specials recorded on the campus of The
University of Arizona, including presentations from Supreme Court Justices Sandra Day O’Connor and Ruth Bader
Ginsburg to a live Gubernatorial Debate in partnership with the Associated Students of The University of Arizona,
the Children’s Action Alliance, and Cox Communications. Our multimedia department supported UA educational
units in their work to provide distance-learning courses for students on and off campus.
KUAZ hosted the production team of popular National Public Radio (NPR) series, Talk of the Nation for a live
national broadcast from The University of Arizona campus, one of only a handful of remote broadcast for this series
that take place each year. Based on the success of the visit to Tucson, another Talk of the Nation remote broadcast
from Tucson is planned for the near future.
Our commitment to education and literacy continues with Ready to Learn, our pre-school literacy initiative, and in
partnership with FirstBook, thousands of books were provided to children who might not otherwise have books in
their homes. To date, KUAT has distributed over 70,000 books to children in our area. The annual Reading
Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Contest encouraged hundreds of early elementary school children to
become budding young authors. New this year, was a Children’s Holiday Card Contest, which enlisted children who
were hospitalized at the University Medical Center and Tucson Medical Center, to design the organization’s holiday
card. KUAT maintained an active and visible presence in the community through a media partnership with Tucson
Lifestyle Magazine for its annual performing arts preview events, as well as participation in the annual Baby Fair
and Family Arts Festival. A number of other media sponsorships helped to increase organizational visibility in the
community.
KUAT Online & New Media Department added a new staff to support our growing online media service. The online
activities continue to be one of the main growth areas of the organization. More than 600 video-on-demand offerings
were posted to the website: a ten-fold increase over last fiscal year.
High-definition (HD) radio service was inaugurated this year with funds received from a matching CPB grant from
FY’06. In addition to improved sonic quality, the HD Radio transmission provides an opportunity to broadcast
additional discrete program streams to HD radio receivers. Our classical music service KUAT-FM, provides an
unparalleled round-the-clock classical music service. The station offered more original productions this year
including thirteen broadcast concerts from the Arizona Friends of Chamber Music.
KUAT staff were recognized by their peers for exceptional workmanship. Tom Kleespie and Martin Rubio, received
Rocky Mountain Emmy Awards for a segment from Arizona Illustrated. Photographer Dan Duncan won an Emmy
for The Desert Speaks. The Desert Speaks was also recognized with an award for best documentary series by the
10
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
National Educational Telecommunications Association. Producer Sooyeon Lee accepted a “Lumie” from the Tucson
Pima Arts Council, for her work on Arizona Illustrated exemplifying leadership in the advancement of the arts.
Producer Luis Carrion was selected to fill one of only twenty seats from the hundreds of applicants to the CPB/PBS
Producers Academy at WGBH/Boston.
The KUAT Communications Group is perhaps better positioned than ever before to provide service to the university
community and to communities throughout southern Arizona and beyond. Our focus in the coming year will be to
identify revenue and content opportunities, develop strategic partnerships, invest in technology to streamline
operational effectiveness and work to have a positive impact on the residents of southern Arizona through public
service media.

Organizational Profile
The KUAT Communications Group (“KUAT”) is an educational, broadcast and production resource of The
University of Arizona, consisting of analog and digital public television stations, classical and NPR news/jazz radio
stations, a cable television channel and a MultiMedia unit.
In the tradition of The University of Arizona's mission as a land grant institution, KUAT provides a variety of
educational services to the Southern Arizona community.
KUAT Television - affiliated with the Public Broadcasting Service (“PBS”) - broadcasts via two analog transmitters
strategically located to cover a broad portion of southeastern Arizona. These transmitters simultaneously broadcast a
core of locally-scheduled PBS programming intermixed with several locally-produced series.
In addition to our analog TV transmitters, KUAT also operates two digital transmitters. One transmitter provides a
constant stream of high-definition programming 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The other transmitter offers four
multicast program services 18 plus hours each day, including a channel devoted to children’s programming, a
channel focusing on continuing education and lifelong learning, and a channel providing highlights of some of the
most popular PBS primetime fare. Both major cable service providers in the Tucson designated market area offer
their respective subscribers our analog, high definition and multicast offerings.
KUAT also offers a broad and popular group of radio services. With our classical station, KUAT-FM, broadcasting
via transmitter and multiple translators throughout Southern Arizona, we provide a 24 hour-per-day classical music
service, interspersed with local news.
Our sister stations, KUAZ-AM and KUAZ-FM, provide national news and public affairs programming throughout
the day from respected sources such as National Public Radio (“NPR”) and Public Radio International (“PRI”).
Also, our local radio news team provides multiple news breaks, feature stories and other reports of interest
throughout each weekday. We also produce a regular weekly NPR-style news series focusing on issues of local and
regional interest.
While the AM station is a sunrise-to-sunset station, the KUAZ-FM station broadcasts 24 hours a day. In the
evenings the station provides a mix of jazz recordings and national jazz programming, followed in the early morning
hours by the British Broadcasting Corporation (“BBC”) overnight world news service.
In addition to our television and radio broadcast operations, KUAT also includes a MultiMedia division. MultiMedia
supports The University of Arizona's academic and land-grant mission and the educational mission of public
broadcasting through the production and distribution of educational materials for use in the campus classrooms and
for general public distance learning opportunities through its Educational Broadband Service wireless cable system.
The unit presently operates a television studio, video classrooms, satellite uplinks and receivers, microwave
connections, internet streaming, and video channels, including the UA Channel a cable offering of both Cox and
Comcast.

Management’s Discussion & Analysis
1.
Introduction and Reporting Entity
The following discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial position and activities of the
KUAT Communications Group (“KUAT”), a division of The University of Arizona (the “University”) for
the year ending June 30, 2007. Information for the year ended June 30, 2006, is also provided for
comparative purposes.
This discussion has been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the accompanying notes, which follow this section.
2.
Using the Financial Statements
The Statement of Net Assets presents the financial position of KUAT at the end of the fiscal year and
includes all assets and liabilities of KUAT. Assets and liabilities are classified as either current or noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations that will be paid within one year of the statement date. Current
assets are those resources available to satisfy current liabilities. The difference between total assets and
total liabilities, referred to as net assets, is one indicator of the financial condition of the Organization.
Generally, assets and liabilities are measured using current values. One notable exception is capital assets,
which are stated at historic cost less an allowance for depreciation.
The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets provides information about KUAT’s
financial activities during the year. Revenues and expenses are classified as either operating or nonoperating, and all changes in net asset categories are reported, including capital contributions and additions
or reductions to endowments. As a university licensee, general appropriations from The University, along
with contributions and investment income are considered non-operating revenues. Therefore, as a result of
these standards, KUAT will typically appear to operate at a loss. By comparison, the total change in net
assets is a better indicator of whether the overall financial condition has improved or worsened during the
year.
The financial statements include three statements: the Statement of Net Assets; the Statement of Revenues,
Expenses and Changes in Net Assets; and the Statement of Cash Flows.
The Statement of Cash Flows reflects the inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents during the
year. It shows the various cash activities by type, reconciling the beginning cash and cash equivalents
amount to the ending cash and cash equivalents amount, which is shown on the Statement of Net Assets. In
addition, this statement reconciles cash flows from operating activities to operating income/(loss) on the
Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets.

assets increased by $763,911, or 30.7%, due to capital purchases for digital conversion in the amount of
$1,463,133 less depreciation and disposal of capital equipment during the fiscal year.
Current assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, receivables and
prepaid expenses. Current liabilities consist primarily of accounts payable, accrued liabilities and deferred
revenue. Current assets are sufficient to meet current obligations.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Operating revenues and expenses - In fiscal year 2007, KUAT’s operating revenues decreased by
approximately $230,158, or 28.4%, over fiscal year 2006. This decrease was attributable to a reduction in
auxiliary enterprise revenue associated with distance learning and uplink fees.
Operating expenses increased approximately $186,085, or 1.8%, in fiscal year 2007. Program services,
which consist of programming and production, broadcasting, and program information and promotion
expenses, increased approximately $211,887, or 2.8%, primarily due to increased salary, employee
benefits, and associated indirect administrative support from The University. Supporting services, which
consist of management and general and fundraising and membership development expenses, decreased
approximately $25,802 or .9%, primarily due to operational efficiencies.
4.
Capital and Debt Analysis
As of June 30, 2007, KUAT had $3,251,670 in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation. Title to
these assets resides with The University, which allocates custody of the assets to KUAT for its operational
needs.
The federally mandated Telecommunications Act of 1996 requires all public television stations be able to
broadcast on digital television channels as of May 2003. KUAT successfully met the May 2003 deadline
and is currently broadcasting the national PBS digital signal. The next phase of the project includes
expanding broadcast capabilities for insertion of local material. The final phase includes local production
capability in digital format. The entire digital conversion has an estimated cost of $7.30 million. KUAT is
funding the conversion project through a state appropriation, federal grants and contributions.
Non-operating revenues - Non-operating revenues increased approximately $527,691, or 5.5%, over fiscal
year 2006. The general appropriation from The University increased approximately $93,220, or 3.6%.
Donated facilities and administrative support (indirect administrative support) provided by The University
remained constant with fiscal year 2006. The value is calculated using the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting’s Other Sponsored Activities Method. Other gifts and non-operating revenues increased by
approximately $339,643, or 40.6% due to additional bequests and change in fair value of investments.
KUAT does not separately issue long-term debt and is not currently engaged in any long-term financing
transactions.
5.
Economic Outlook
KUAT management believes the stations are positioned to continue their mission to provide unique highquality educational, cultural, informational, public affairs and entertainment service based upon the needs
of the citizens of Southern Arizona.
KUAT is a participating station for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting's Major Giving Initiative
(“MGI”) program. The primary goal of MGI is to create an internal mechanism to enhance major giving
(planned giving, large gifts, etc.) to the stations, thus ensuring future financial stability. KUAT management
continues to develop long and short-term strategic plans to position KUAT for the future, while addressing
the challenges of the financial health of the organization.
17
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Economic Outlook (continued)
Gift revenue continues to be a substantial source of our Organization’s funding. Planned giving continues to
fund a significant portion of the digital conversion project. KUAT remains dependent on general
appropriations from The University of Arizona and grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
The KUAT Communications Group is ultimately subject to the same economic variables that affect other
financial entities (especially competition from other local non-profit organizations for philanthropic
donations), making it difficult to project future outcomes. Management is well aware of the challenges
ahead and is working diligently and responsibly to continue to provide high quality public broadcasting and
educational services.

Independent Auditors’ Report
Tucson, Arizona
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the KUAT Communications Group (“KUAT”), a
division of The University of Arizona, (the “University”) as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of
revenues, expenses and changes in net assets and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of The University’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of the KUAT Communications Group as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The management’s discussion and analysis on pages 4 through 9 are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of
management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information.
However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
The accompanying supplementary information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Purpose
The KUAT Communications Group (“KUAT”) is a division of The University of Arizona (the
"University"), which functions as a public communications entity. KUAT-TV, KUAT-FM, and
KUAZ/KUAZ-FM (the "Stations") are licensed by the Federal Communication Commission (“FCC”) as
non-commercial, educational broadcasting stations. For financial statement purposes, KUAT-TV includes
KUAT-TV, KUAS-TV, KUAT-DT, KUAS-DT and MultiMedia, a production and distribution department,
operating an Educational Broadband Service (“EBS”) and a Multipoint Distribution System (“MDS”) in
conjunction with satellite, microwave and internet services to provide instructional programming services.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements include all funds directly controlled by the KUAT Communications Group. Fiscal
responsibility remains with The University of Arizona.
The financial statements include a Statement of Net Assets; a Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and
Changes in Net Assets; and a Statement of Cash Flows.
t
The Statement of Net Assets provides information about the assets, liabilities, and net assets of KUAT
at June 30. Assets and liabilities are classified as either current or non-current. Current liabilities are
obligations that will be paid within one year of the statement date and current assets are those
resources available to satisfy current liabilities. Net assets are the residual amounts and are classified
according to external donor restrictions and availability of assets to satisfy obligations. Invested in
capital assets represents capital assets less accumulated depreciation. Nonexpendable restricted net
assets are gifts received for endowment purposes, the corpus of which may not be expended.
Expendable restricted net assets represent grants, contracts, gifts and other resources that have been
externally restricted for specific purposes. Unrestricted net assets include all the other net assets,
including those that have been designated by management to be used for other than general operating
purposes.
The financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) applicable to governmental colleges and universities engaged in business-type activities as
adopted by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”). KUAT follows Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statements and Interpretations issued on or before November 30,
1989, Accounting Principles Board Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins, and the Financial
Reporting Guidelines published by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (“CPB”), unless those
pronouncements conflict with GASB pronouncements.
25
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
t
The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets provides information about
KUAT’s financial activities during the year. Revenues and expenses are classified as either operating
or non-operating, and all changes in net assets are reported, including capital contributions and
additions to endowments. Generally, revenues generated by KUAT for services are considered to be
operating revenues. Other revenues, such as University appropriations and gifts, are not considered
generated from operations and are reported as non-operating revenues. Operating expenses include the
cost of providing program and supporting services, depreciation of capital assets and the indirect
support provided by The University. Non-operating expenses include the loss on disposal of capital
assets.
t
The Statement of Cash Flows provides information about KUAT’s sources and uses of cash and cash
equivalents during the year. Increases and decreases in cash and cash equivalents are classified as
operating, non-capital financing, capital financing, or investing activities.
The financial statements are reported using the accrual basis of accounting. KUAT eliminates all internal
activity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments held by The University and The University
of Arizona Foundation (the “Foundation”).
Funds Held by The University of Arizona
The University acts as collection and disbursement agent on behalf of KUAT. Funds held by The
University represent the excess of cash collected over cash disbursed and are due on demand. Therefore,
these amounts are considered cash and cash equivalents for purposes of reporting cash flows.
Under Arizona State law and Board of Regents’ policies, The University may invest its pooled operating
funds in collateralized time certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements with commercial banks,
United States Treasury securities and other Federal agency securities or in the government investment pool
administered by the State Treasurer’s office. Cash amounts held in excess of federal depository insurance
limits are otherwise collateralized by U.S. Government obligations held by an agent of the bank in the
name of the State of Arizona.
Funds Held by The University of Arizona Foundation
Amounts on deposit with the Foundation are cash collected and invested for KUAT by the Foundation. The
balance is due to KUAT on demand. Therefore, these amounts are considered cash and cash equivalents for
purposes of reporting cash flows.
The Foundation invests such funds in a combination of fixed income securities, government obligations,
treasury obligations, cash and cash equivalents, and other federal agency obligations in order to achieve a
diversified portfolio.
26
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Endowment Investments
Endowment assets have been donated to KUAT and are permanently restricted by the donor. Endowment
assets are held and invested by The University and the Foundation. With respect to KUAT, these
investments represent external investment pools. The investments pools include investments in various
stocks, bonds, fixed income securities, real estate and commodities. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the
weighted average maturity of investments was approximately 5 years for The University and approximately
4 years for the Foundation. The investment pools are not rated.
Investments are carried at market, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are reflected in the
statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net assets.
Transmission, antenna, and tower
Studio, equipment, and furniture and fixtures
15 years
7 years
Interest is capitalized in connection with the construction of major facilities. The capitalized interest is
recorded as part of the asset to which it relates and is amortized over the asset's estimated useful life.
Revenue Recognition
Federal grants, contracts and appropriations and non-governmental grants and contracts are accounted for
as exchange transactions and are recorded as revenue when earned. Advances in excess of costs incurred
under grants and contracts are deferred and recognized as revenue when the related expense is incurred.
Auxiliary enterprise revenue results mainly from the sale of services of the MultiMedia department, lease
of broadcast rights, and video sales of programming. In addition, KUAT leases certain excess capacity EBS
and MDS frequencies and other spectrum to third-parties. All such revenue is reported when services have
been provided or products have been shipped.
Capital Assets
Capital assets equal to or greater than $5,000 are recorded at cost or, in the case of gifts, at their estimated
fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
As a division of The University of Arizona, KUAT receives an annual appropriation from The University.
The appropriation is reported as revenue in the year appropriated.
Subscription and membership income are considered unconditional promises to give and are reported as
unrestricted revenue in the period the pledge is made. Allowance is made for uncollectible accounts.
Revenue related to program underwriting is recognized as unrestricted contributed revenue in the period the
agreement is executed.
Other gifts received for the purpose of supporting programming costs, including amounts from the
Corporation for Public Broadcasting, are recognized as revenue in the period the promise to give is made.
CPB funding is expended in the year following receipt for budgetary purposes. Other gifts are considered to
be unrestricted unless specifically restricted by the donor. KUAT records donor-restricted gifts that have
not been expended in the current year as restricted net assets.
27
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Deferred Revenue
Excess capacity lease incentive payments are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized to revenue over
the term of the agreement.
Functional Allocation of Expenses
The costs of various program services and other activities have been summarized on a functional basis in
the statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net assets. Accordingly, certain costs have been
allocated among program and supporting services based on total personnel costs or other systematic bases.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses include dues and program broadcast rights. These costs are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the period of the agreement.
28
Net Assets
KUAT has both restricted and unrestricted resources available for most programs. Restricted resources are
externally restricted for a specific purpose and primarily include specific grants and contributions. KUAT’s
policy regarding whether to first apply restricted or unrestricted resources is made on a case-by-case basis.
Tax Status
The University has received approval for federal tax-exempt status from the Internal Revenue Service and
is also exempt from state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision is made for income taxes in the
accompanying financial statements. Management is not aware of any matters which would cause The
University or KUAT to lose its tax-exempt status.

Full-time, permanent employees of The University are, in general, required to be members of an authorized
retirement program. The programs are funded through payroll deductions from covered employees' gross
earnings and amounts contributed by The University. In general, employees' rights vest after five years of
service under all plans. University contributions for, and interest forfeited by, employees who leave
employment before five years of service are used to reduce The University's future period contribution
requirements. Retirement payments are obligations of the respective retirement funds and not The
University.
Benefit eligible employees of The University are covered by the Arizona State Retirement System
(“ASRS"), a defined benefit retirement plan. The ASRS is a multiple employer, cost-sharing pension plan
providing death and retirement benefits based on a combination of years of service and average monthly
earnings, as defined. The ASRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes its financial
statements and required supplementary information.
The ASRS contribution rate, as required by statute for both employees and employers was 9.1 percent (8.6
percent retirement and .5 percent long-term disability) and 7.4 percent (6.9 percent retirement and .5
percent long-term disability) of the employees’ annual covered payroll for the years ended June 30, 2007
and 2006, respectively. KUAT’s retirement plan expense for this plan approximated $159,876 and
$145,759 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Retirement Plans (continued)
The University also offers pension benefits for eligible faculty, academic professionals, and administrators
via defined contribution plans. The benefits of the defined contribution plan depend solely on amounts
contributed to the plan plus investment earnings. State statute requires that both the employee and The
University contribute an amount equal to 7 percent of the employee's base salary. KUAT’s retirement plan
expense for this plan approximated $120,577 and $100,645 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.

HISTORY
In the early 1920’s The University of Arizona secured
an experimental radio license to test a new and (at the time)
unproven medium, wireless radio. Nearly 20 years later in 1939,
UA established its Radio Bureau providing programming to
Tucson and Phoenix commercial radio stations. In the early
1950’s, the bureau expanded to include the word “television”
in its title and provided news reports to commercial television
stations throughout Arizona.
KUAT Channel 6 inaugurated service in March 1959 as one
of the pioneer educational television stations in the United
States and as the first noncommercial educational TV station in
Arizona. Upgrades from black and white to color transmission,
new transmitter sites on Mt. Bigelow (and additional transmitter
and translator construction on Tumamoc Hill) occurred during
the late 1960’s.
The University of Arizona’s first “PEG” (Public Access/Education/
Government) cable channel launched in 1994. The service
later became the UA Channel and is now carried throughout
Southern Arizona on Cox and Comcast cable systems.
Tucson television entered the digital age in December 2002 as
then UA President Peter Likins officially switched on KUAS-DT
as the first Digital Television (DT) station in Southern Arizona.
KUAT-DT, the Group’s second digital television transmitter,
signed on in April, 2003.
In December 2006 and January 2007 respectively, KUAT-FM
and KUAZ-FM High Definition (HD) digital transmitters were
installed. Each FM station now has the capability to deliver multiple discrete program services to listeners who have HD radio
receivers.
In the Fall of 1968, KUAT-AM began broadcasting with a format
of classical and jazz music as well as cultural and educational
programming. The station’s 50,000-watt signal is one of the most
powerful among non-commercial radio stations nationwide. A
few years after its launch, KUAT radio became a charter member of the newly formed National Public Radio (NPR) system.
KUAT’s full-time
classical radio service began in Spring, 1975 with the addition of
Tucson’s first public FM radio station.
1980 marked the beginning of a decades-long commitment to
news and public affairs with the premiere of Arizona Illustrated
on KUAT-TV. On the radio side, KUAT-AM began the broadcast of Radio Universidad, a weekly series focusing on content
of interest to Southern Arizona’s Hispanic listeners. 1982 saw
the debut of Reflexiones on Channel 6, a weekly bilingual news
magazine series focusing on the issues and interests of Southern
Arizona’s Hispanic community. KUAT-TV took on the production
of The Desert Speaks in 1990, working in cooperation with the
world-renowned Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Since then
the series has won a multitude of regional and national awards.
KUAZ-FM launched in 1992 and it broadcast NPR’s flagship
morning and afternoon news magazines, Morning Edition and All
Things Considered, with the balance of its programming primarily
devoted to jazz music. KUAT-AM’s call letters were changed to
KUAZ in 1998, to reflect that it simulcasts KUAZ-FM’s daytime
programming. In 2003, the schedule for KUAZ-AM/FM was
modified to offer news and information programming from
NPR during daytime hours and jazz music during evening hours.
t
KUAT Channel 6 inaugurated
service in March 1959 as one of
the pioneer educational
television stations in the United
States and as the first
noncommercial educational TV
station in Arizona.

PROGRAM SERVICES
Television
KUAT’s two digital television transmitters broadcast multiple digital television signals throughout Tucson and Southern Arizona. A
24-hour high-definition television (HDTV) service is the cornerstone of the digital program service, providing the best of public
television programming in this new, high-resolution TV format. In
addition, KUAT offers four standard-definition television (SDTV)
channels, including a digital version of Channel 6, a round-theclock children’s service (KUAT Kids), a life-long learning channel
(Create), and KUAT Prime, featuring encore presentations of the
very best programs from PBS.
Radio
The major focus for KUAT’s digital television operation in
Fiscal Year 2007 has been the purchase and installation of High
Definition (HDTV) production and program delivery equipment
to complete the next phase of the digital conversion. Federal
matching grants from the Public Telecommunications Facilities
Program (PTFP) provided $494K towards a project totaling
$988K. Local fundraising secured KUAT’s match to the PTFP
grant.
KUAT-FM provides a 24-hour classical music service to metropolitan Tucson and other Southern Arizona communities via five
translators. KUAT-FM is the only classical music radio station in
Southern Arizona. In addition to the station’s local hosts presenting recorded classical music, KUAT-FM offers nationally distributed classical music programming including the Metropolitan
Opera, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, St. Paul Sunday, Live from
the Concertgebouw, and many others.
KUAZ-AM/FM broadcasts a schedule that includes news and
information programming, jazz music, and bilingual programming designed for Native American and Hispanic audiences. The
stations serve metropolitan Tucson and the nearby communities
of Marana, Oro Valley, Vail, Green Valley, and via translator, Sierra
Vista. Its broadcasts include Morning Edition, All Things Considered,
Talk of the Nation, Fresh Air, Latino USA, Weekend America, This
American Life and Car Talk, among others. Local news is provided
on both KUAT and KUAZ.
Online and New Media
KUAT Online and New Media is having its greatest impact in
the area of community engagement. Over the past year, KUAT
local productions have been adapted for the growing online
world with more than 650 video-on-demand offerings now
available.
UA Channel (Cox 116/Comcast 76)
The UA Channel provides recording, editing and distribution
services for a variety of departments and organizations on
campus. Productions offered to Cox and Comcast subscribers
included the Winter and Spring Commencement Ceremonies, the
weekly Faculty Fellows Speaker Series, and coverage of several
Faculty Community Lecture Series presentations.
40
Digital Television
KUAT Channel 6 and KUAS Channel 27, which simulcast a single
program stream, provide high quality national programming
from the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) including The News
Hour with Jim Lehrer, Frontline, Masterpiece Theatre and a wide
array of children’s programs like Sesame Street and Arthur, based
on the popular children’s books by Marc Brown. The stations
also provide a rich assortment of original productions including
news and public affairs and documentary programs for television viewers throughout Southern Arizona. Offerings include
Arizona Illustrated, Reflexiones Domingo, The Desert Speaks and
documentary specials like Tucson Remembers: The War Years.
Digital Technology
Additional support for the purchase of HD production equipment was provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s
Digital Distribution Fund (DDF), the total cost of which was
$252K. The new digital production equipment will continue
to be installed throughout the remainder of the calendar year
2007.
Digital Radio
KUAT staff installed new High Definition (HD) FM transmission
equipment for stations KUAT-FM and KUAZ-FM with funds
from a matching CPB grant received in FY2006. KUAT-FM began
broadcasting the HD Radio format in December 2006 and
KUAZ-FM followed in January 2007. In addition to improved
sonic quality, the HD Radio transition provides the opportunity
to broadcast additional discrete program streams to HD radio
receivers. The total HD radio project cost was $235K.

Phoenix Mars missions. Work on the project to date has included expeditions to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Denver
and Cape Canaveral, Florida, as well as numerous shoots at
the Phoenix Mars headquarters in Tucson. The crew will be on
location in Florida this August to record the launch of the rocket
carrying UA’s payload. The first documentary is planned for Fall
2007/Spring 2008 and the second, a year later, will cover the
landing and early science from the mission.
The Desert Speaks – Season 18 (Fall 2008) – KUAT is now
preparing ten new shows for Season 18 of The Desert Speaks,
including programs featuring Chile and the desert islands in the
Sea of Cortez.
EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH
Ready to Learn KUAT’s Ready to Learn service is designed to
bring a rich, comprehensive reading experience to participating
students, through the KUAT Kids Book Club, established in selected local schools. Based on the PBS Between the Lions television series, the “club” features comprehensive teacher resource
materials centered on monthly themes, corresponding videos,
and free books delivered each month to every first grade
student. Participating schools are targeted from low-income
neighborhoods and draw a high percentage of limited-literacy
students. During the last school year approximately 2,600 books
were delivered to first-grade students through this program.
To date, more than 70,000 free books have been distributed to
local children.
Teacher training supports the Kids Book Club goals by demonstrating the accessibility of classroom resources, such as PBS
Teachers, PBS Kids, and Reading Rainbow websites. Web-based
training is targeted to reach educators in local charter schools
and rural educators with an online exploration of resources,
similar to those presented in the teacher training. All workshops
trainings are enhanced with educational and program related
materials.
Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators
Contest (since 1995) – On May 6th, the winners of KUAT’s
annual Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Contest
came together with family members and other literary supporters at Bookman’s Entertainment Exchange on East Speedway.
The contest encouraged children in grades K-3 to write and
illustrate an original story. Thirteen winners were chosen by volunteer judges from more than 350 entries, with the top winners
at each grade level going on to the national contest.
Holiday Card Project KUAT visited the children’s wards at
University Medical Center and Tucson Medical Center to offer
a bit of cheer and brighten the holiday season, with its holiday
card art contest. Working with art materials donated from a
local vendor, the young patients depicted holiday scenes for possible use as KUAT’s “official” holiday card. KUAT staff selected a
work of art from each ward for the production of two holiday
greeting cards.
UA Distance Learning KUAT records Systems Engineering
courses for the Department of Engineering and Mines. The
semester-long courses are distributed via DVD and web streaming to remote students across the United States and the globe.
In addition, KUAT coordinated with the same department on
an experimental course, for which instructional material was
recorded in small components and delivered via D2L. Courses
were provided in modular form, permitting the flexibility to
change content from semester to semester, giving recorded
courses a longer life span.
KUAT sponsors parent workshops which include multiple
contacts with parents, particularly those participants from Family
Literacy settings. Initial contact focuses on an experiential workshop centered on the PBS television program Clifford and the
Learning Triangle (view a program, identify the theme, and complete the learning experience with selected books). Performance
achievements for the 2006-2007 year included 60 multi-contact
workshops, 85% of which were presented in Spanish or both
Spanish and English and 8 single-contact workshops, including
workshops offered to parents of children in the Kids Book Club.
Participants included 755 parents and 121 educators, and represented approximately 2,236 children. Nearly 800 books were
distributed through these workshops.
Community Outreach and Events
Tucson Family Arts Festival KUAT is a regular participant in this
city-wide event designed to promote art to people of all ages.
Tucson Baby Fair KUAT is commited to creating a safe, educa-
tional programming service for children. The station participates in
this annual event held at the Tucson Convention Center, offering
giveaways for children and information about KUAT’s services for
parents, guardians and caregivers.
Educational Enrichment Foundation (EEF) KUAT assisted the
EEF by producing a video presentation to honor Helaine Levy, Joan
Diamond, The Tucson Conquistadores and Eileen and M. Lee Starr.
Habitat for Humanity Members of the KUAT staff volunteered to
paint a new house constructed by Habitat for Humanity. Staff members are encouraged to support the community through organized
staff activities whenever possible.

Andre Rieu Concert at the Tucson Convention Center
The Dutch violinist, conductor and top-selling recording artist, known
for bringing about an international revival of waltz music, brought
his orchestra to Tucson for a holiday concert. KUAT Channel 6, the
media partner for the event, offered advance tickets during membership appeals for those wishing to attend the concert and support
Southern Arizona public broadcasting.
Antiques Road Show Premiere at the Rodeo Parade Museum
Hosting a premiere event at the Rodeo Parade Museum gave KUAT
an opportunity to introduce many local residents to this unique
collection from Tucson’s past. The event was designed to promote
the new season of Antiques Roadshow, which featured three episodes
shot in Tucson.
Media Sponsorships
Tucson Literacy Volunteers and Library In May, KUAT launched
a collaborative effort with Literacy Volunteers and the Pima Public
Library to promote adult literacy in Tucson.
Fiesta Fantastica at La Encantada KUAT partnered with
Tucson Lifestyle Magazine and the Ara Parseghian Medical Research
Foundation, for the benefit of Niemann-Pick (NP-C) disease research.
KUAT Public Advisory Board members met viewers and listeners in a
festive, casual atmosphere in support of medical research.
The Desert Speaks Premiere at the Arizona Sonora Desert
Museum This annual event was held at the ASDM this year,
strengthening already strong ties with the museum.
Be Safe Saturday at Tucson Medical Center Gabriela from
PBS’s Danger Rangers joined staff and volunteers for “Be Safe
Saturday” at TMC. The annual event drew families from all over
Tucson to learn about bike safety, fire precautions and quality television programs.
more than a dozen years KUAT has been the media partner for
this annual celebration of the new performing arts season.
Green Valley Piano Competition Classical KUAT an-
nouncer James Reel was host and master of ceremonies for the
annual Green Valley Piano Competition, featuring UA School of
Music graduate students. The program will be broadcast as part
of KUAT-FM’s Community Concert series.
During the past year, KUAT
has been a media partner
of the Tucson Symphony
Orchestra, the University
of Arizona School of Music
and Repertory Theatre, the
Catalina Chamber Orchestra
and Chamber Music Plus
Southwest, among others.
Talk of the Nation National Broadcast Across the nation via ra-
dio broadcast by NPR stations, and across the globe via web streaming, the popular NPR program was introduced “Live from the Stevie
Eller Dance Theater on the campus of the University of Arizona…”
KUAZ hosted a live, two-hour broadcast of Talk of the Nation dealing
with the issues of immigration, personal ethics and “horse sense” with
Arizona-based humorist, Baxter Black. The Stevie Eller Dance Theater
was standing room only with invited guests and the general public in
attendance.

Tucson Lifestyle Magazine Performing Arts Premiere For
AUDIENCE GROWTH/RECOGNITION
Television
KUAT Channel 6 is consistently ranked one of the top public
television stations in the country according to PBS Station
Audience Reports, which are based on industry standard
Nielsen Media Research data. Channel 6 ranks among the top
three PBS stations nationwide in terms of prime-time viewing
per capita. At a time when many broadcasters are experiencing
audience erosion from the increased number of channels available, KUAT-TV’s prime time audience grew 42% and the overall
audience grew 28%.
The Desert Speaks, which is produced in both analog and HDTV,
is distributed nationwide and is available in 80% of the country.
In the last 90 days alone, 16,371 telecasts have been broadcast
on public stations across the country. In addition, the series is
licensed to the Discovery Channel’s Discovery HD Theater for
additional national telecasts.
Radio
The Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators
Contest is making a positive contribution toward creating a
community of readers, writers and illustrators and is one of
KUAT’s most popular online activities. More than 2,000 users
went to the Reading Rainbow site on kuat.org for contest information and entry forms. The winning entries were animated and
are available online for viewing or downloading.
KUAT’s online assets extend the reach of the organization far
beyond the KUAT broadcast range – and in so doing, strengthen
the outreach mission of the University.
Recent Awards
Tucson Pima Arts Awards Producer Sooyeon Lee and
Arizona Illustrated won a “Lumie,” a 2007 Tucson Pima Arts
Award, in the category of Arts Supporter for demonstrating
leadership in advancing the arts. The Tucson Pima Arts Council
annually recognizes those luminaries who are dedicated to
the advancement, enhancement, and growth of the arts in our
community.
According to Arbitron audience data, in the Winter quarter KUAZAM/FM posted a 15% increase in audience over the same quarter of
the previous year and a 56% increase in listenership over the Winter
quarter of five years earlier. KUAZ is regularly among the top 5 “most
listened to” stations in the market. KUAZ’s online streaming service
continues to grow as well but in contrast to that of KUAT-FM its users tend to be located within the U.S.
Arbitron audience estimates indicate that KUAT-FM regularly places
among the top 12 most listened-to stations in the market. Like most
classical music public radio stations, KUAT-FM’s audience has not
grown in recent years, but has remained steady. In marked contrast,
commercial classical stations’ audiences have declined precipitously
in recent years, losing about 26% of their listeners between 1999
and 2005. Markets across the country have seen commercial classical
radio programming replaced by other formats in increasing numbers.
Nationwide there were 40 commercial classical stations in 1998; by
2005 the number was 28. The situation is different for KUAT-FM’s online streaming service, which continues to serve ever-larger audiences
around the globe.
KUAT’s The Vote (election) initiative provided extensive coverage
of the candidates, the races and the issues on radio, television and
online. Online statistics demonstrated that audiences watched election forums and debates when they were first posted, and then went
back to view them again close to Election Day. This was especially
evident with coverage of the confusing slate of initiatives and
propositions before Arizona voters in 2006. Election Day coverage yielded more than 28,000 page views, roughly a ten-fold
increase from normal online traffic.
Online
KUAT online activities are enjoying significant growth. During FY2007,
more than 600 video-on-demand offerings were posted: a ten-fold
increase over the last fiscal year.
On-demand video segments range from 3-4 minutes and cover news,
science and arts features to the hour-plus special productions.
Online usage (page views) has increased over the last year:
kuat.org
+44%
kuaz.org
+38%
kuatfm.org
+32%
Among online offerings, coverage of UA President Robert Shelton’s
inauguration is noteworthy in that it was KUAT’s first live streaming
effort in collaboration with the Online and Broadcast classes from
the Department of Journalism. The inauguration became the most
requested content for the month of October; generating well over
2,500 views on kuat.org and over 1,700 views on thecatscan.com
(Department of Journalism website).
Emmy Awards The winners of the 2006 National Academy of
Television, Arts and Sciences - Rocky Mountain Chapter, Emmy
awards were announced and KUAT’s Martin Rubio and Tom
Kleespie each won in the Magazine Program - Feature/Segment
category for their Arizona Illustrated feature, “Medical School
Student.” Dan Duncan won an Emmy in the Photographer
- Program category for his work on The Desert Speaks. To date,
The Desert Speaks staff has been recognized with 24 Emmy
awards for overall programming excellence.
NETA Award The Desert Speaks brought home yet an-
other prestigious trophy in January. The National Educational
Telecommunications Association (NETA) honored the KUAT
production with its national award for best documentary series.
The award was presented during a ceremony at the NETA
annual conference. Judges commented that the series remains
strong and innovative, even in its 16th season. They praised the
program’s environmental focus and its beautiful high-definition
photography.

Luis Carrion
Selected as one of only 20 participants from a field of 185
applicants, KUAT producer Luis Carrion traveled to Boston in
June to attend the prestigious CPB/PBS Producers’ Academy.
The week-long workshop was developed for the most promising producers who create (or intend to create) works for public
broadcasting. It is an opportunity for the producers to work
intensively and in direct contact with some of public television’s
most talented program creators to develop the skills that will
benefit them and their stations.
Rudy Casillas
In May, Channel 6 programmer Rudy Casillas was recognized by
the Public Television Programmers Association with a Golden
Grids Award, for exceptional scheduling practices which resulted
in significant audience growth.
Hector Gonzalez
Hector Gonzalez, Director of Online and New Media, was
recognized with the National Academy of Television Arts and

AUDIENCE SUPPORT
COMMUNITY SUPPORT
Community support is KUAT’s single largest source of operating revenue. Each year, more than 28,000 members help fund
programming and many of the services provided by the KUAT
Communications Group. Through on-air appeals, new viewers
and listeners are encouraged to join KUAT’s growing family of
supporters. As new programs and services are developed, as
program costs increase, and as State and Federal grants flatten,
it is important to encourage greater community investment in
Southern Arizona’s public media services. The number of individual members increased by 6.22% in FY2007.
KUAT received the proceeds from a number of planned gifts
during FY2007. Planned gifts are contributions that range from
simple agreements to complex trust arrangements. All planned
gifts made to KUAT are administered by the University of
Arizona Foundation for the benefit of KUAT.
Leadership Society
Viewer and Listener Feedback
The KUAT member services department keeps a record of
correspondence from viewers and listeners (and responses
from KUAT staff) on file. Every attempt is made to respond to
suggestions, complaints and other feedback within 48-hours of
receipt.
Public Inspection File
KUAT, as required by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), keeps an accessible public file pertaining
to all required aspects of KUAT radio and television broadcast operations. In April, KUAT participated in a review of the
public file and all other FCC-regulated areas of the operation
in cooperation with the Arizona Association of Broadcasters
(ABA). The KUAT public file and technical operations were
deemed to be in full compliance with all FCC regulations.
Certification of our compliance and participation in the ABA
voluntary inspection program is posted in the KUAT lobby.
For individuals who support KUAT with an annual (net) contribution of $500 or more each year, KUAT has developed the
Leadership Society. These donors are afforded special opportunities with the organization, including invitations to special
events, station tours and other VIP activities.
Corporate Support
Many Southern Arizona businesses have long recognized the
benefit of incorporating KUAT into their advertising and marketing campaigns, through underwriting on radio and television.
Underwriting (sometimes referred to as corporate support)
provides financial support for a program or series that has no
commercial announcements. In exchange for this contribution,
the underwriter is provided an on-air recognition of their support for a particular program or station.
The number of KUAT individual members
increased by 6.22% in
FY2007.
A list of current underwriters is provided in Appendix B.

Training Positions
KUAT currently offers opportunities for on-the-job paid training in television production. The two-year program provides a
variety of training sessions relating to the ongoing operation and
television production activities.
Students/Interns
KUAT employs University students in key broadcast production roles, allowing them to receive the benefit of professional
training alongside experienced staff. Still others work in support
positions or are involved as student interns, adding practical
knowledge to their classroom work. KUAT accepts interns from
the University of Arizona in several departments throughout
the organization. Placement is based on matching the skills and
academic needs of the intern with the needs of the department.
Volunteers
As a public media service, KUAT’s television and radio stations
are able to operate at maximum efficiency thanks to the work
of hundreds of volunteers from the community. These individuals perform many different duties from answering phones during
regular membership campaigns to assisting in other daily operations throughout the organization.
Diversity
As a federally licensed broadcaster, the KUAT Communications Group is required to report on its progress in attracting a
diverse workforce. This requirement of the broadcast license is
reviewed by the FCC at license renewal time and periodically
throughout the year. Beyond the intent of the FCC requirement
and University EEO policy is management’s strong commitment
to embrace the spirit of both − to make the workplace and
the content offered on KUAT stations reflect the communities
served by KUAT.
48
SUMMARY
The KUAT Communications Group is exceptionally well positioned
to speak to the community and the national audience about the University
of Arizona’s achievements. Through the reach of its various media assets,
KUAT supports the University in attracting potential students and faculty and
in bringing information about its research initiatives to the attention of the
public and potential granting organizations and major donors. In addition to its
broadcast channels, the KUAT websites provide much of the original content
developed locally to audiences for download on demand anywhere in the
world.
The financial costs associated in keeping pace with rapidly changing technologies, program acquisition and creating local programming continue to challenge KUAT and the public broadcasting industry. Station expenses, including
those for local program production, have increased by 26% over the past
three years. Today approximately 40% of the KUAT operating budget goes to
fixed PBS, NPR or other major program supplier license fees.
Federal and State grants, matched with funds from local viewers and listeners,
have provided substantial (one-time) capital resources for the FCC-mandated
digital conversion of the television stations. Federal grants also financed a large
portion of the move to digital radio – a byproduct of which is a more efficient
and reliable analog broadcast environment for the FM stations.
KUAT’s key strength is its robust variety of media platforms and their market
penetration. Each week more than 200,000 families in Southern Arizona use
one or more of the Group’s stations.
While these are indeed challenging times, they are equally exciting times to be
involved in public broadcasting. In the coming fiscal year, KUAT will deploy the
final phase of the digital television conversion. The organization will soon be
producing a whole new generation of digital content – seizing the opportunity to offer higher quality and a greater diversity of programs to viewers and
listeners throughout Southern Arizona and beyond.
What began as a humble radio experiment in the early 1920’s at the
University of Arizona has become an unparalleled multimedia service which
continues to educate, inform and inspire.
