"She had high standards and expected people to meet those standards, students as well as faculty."

One of those is Amyre Makupson, WKBD-TV (Channel 50) public affairs manager and news anchor who worked at Channel 62 for its first 1 years. Makupson left a $22,000 public relations job for a $12,500 job as anchor fbr Channel 62's noon newscast, then was laid off 30 days later when the program was canceled for lack of money.

"In the short run, it was devastating," she said. "I knew I had made the major mistake of my life."

"You don't walk into a door without a tape," she said. "You have to get a tape from somewhere." Of Gregory, Makupson said: "She was willing to listen to my ideas and willing to take chances with me. They gave me one hell of an opportunity." GREGORY DESCRIBED the process of training young people who go on to larger stations as "bittersweet.

"If we say we reject all the programming that has opinion that we do not believe in personally, we would not be able to be on the air.

But that does not mean that the station should show so-called "black shows" exclusively, she said. "You cannot discriminate and say we are only going to show black shows and that's it," she said.
