The <br />Showcase eliminated the young students’ screening this year due to space and <br />administrative limitations, so it is of particular significance that their film was accepted. <br />The students’ piece, “Battle of the Sexes,” was created during after-school Broadcast <br />Club sessions the second semester of the 2008-2009 school year. It is part of a larger <br />documentary that students will complete in a Broadcast Journalism course, which is <br />being offered for the first time at UCHS during the 2009-2010 school year. Mary <br />Williams and Curtis Stuart are sponsors of the Broadcast Club and Curtis Stuart will be <br />teaching the course. A grant for equipment and an instructor, Webster University <br />CALOP (Commission for Access and Local <br />Professor Kathy Corley, was provided by <br />Original Programming) <br /> of University City. Mary Williams serves as the University City <br />School District liaison to CALOP. Hybrie Brownlee and Jarohn Johnson directed “Battle <br />of the Sexes”, which features UCHS’s macho men and feline fashionistas in a spoof of <br />TV wrestling matches. It includes UCHS wrestlers Justin Nicks, and state qualifiers <br />DeMarco Kemp and Chris Vaughn. Rounding out the cast are UCHS students Maya <br />Foster, Aubrion Taylor, and Arriana Moore.
