Oxford University Broadcasting Society

The Oxford University Broadcasting Society (OUBS) was a student society at the University of Oxford, England. It covered radio and television broadcasting.

The officers include a President, Secretary, Treasure, Programme Coordinator, Technical Director, News Editor, Social Secretary, and two ordinary committee members.[1] Equipment included a Uher 4000L portable tape recorder.[2]

For some years, OUBS used the BBC Radio Oxford studio in Wellington Square, Oxford to produce radio programmes for Radio Oxford and the Oxford Hospital Broadcasting Association.[1] It also used the studios at the Churchill Hospital, Oxford, home of the Oxford Hospitals Broadcasting Association, which ran a radio station known as Radio Cherwell.

Aubrey Singer, Controller of BBC2, spoke to the society in 1975.[3]
