Pat Summerall Productions to Air Their
Program Featuring Sherman College
This fall Sherman College’s message will reach
households across the United States when The
Discovery Channel will air Pat Summerall
Productions’ paid program entitled Champions of
Industry. The 30-minute special, “Spotlight on
Education,” will feature four cutting-edge
schools and colleges and is hosted by Pat
Summerall, the acclaimed broadcaster known as
“the voice of the NFL.”
The show is scheduled to air on October 14 at
7:00 a.m. and again on November 11 at 8:00 a.m.
Eastern/Pacific time. The segment devoted to
Sherman College will last approximately five
minutes. Please check the college’s web site (www.sherman.edu)
closer to the air date to confirm these
scheduled times. Streaming video of our segment
will be posted at Pat Summerall Productions’ web
site, www.patsummerall.com, for one year.
Sherman College was selected for inclusion in
the program earlier this year, and a
videographer for Pat Summerall Productions
visited campus on July 14 to conduct interviews
and tape classroom and Health Center activities
for the production.
During its search for institutions to highlight,
Pat Summerall Productions sought U.S. colleges
that exemplify leadership and success and have
unique curricula and missions. The four schools
selected are those that are “engaged in
innovative efforts to deliver on their
missions,” according to the company. The other
three educational institutions featured in the
October 14, 2003, program include the University
of Southern Mississippi, Gadsden State Community
College (AL) and Williamson County School
District in Tennessee.
According to Pat Summerall Productions’ web
site, the “Champions of Industry” series serves
as the company’s recognition award for
excellence in business practices and has been
airing for eight years. Companies attain
champion status “because of their integrity,
ingenuity and proven leadership in their
respective industries,” the site notes.
Summerall, the site adds, is “the most sought
after voice-over and spokesman in the production
industry.”
