D ’TORCH Campus Radio is the official radio station of Dominican International School Taipei. The station’s studio is located on the 2nd floor of the administration building, Dominican International School, 76 Dazhi St., Zhongshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan. It streams daily for twelve hours under the Mixlr website (www.mixlr.com). Mixlr is a live broadcasting software application that can be accessed over the internet. It allows D’Torch Campus Radio to transmit, export, and share its live audio broadcasts to use over the internet. With the approval of Sr. Ma. Zenaida T. Ancheta, OP Directress/Principal its first air date was September 5, 2016.
D'TORCH Campus Radio was born out of a shared vision between Mr. Ed Solis and Mr. Ian Crisostomo, Jr., with the full support and approval of Sr. Maria Zenaida T. Ancheta, OP. In 2016, these two pioneers embarked on a journey to the Philippines, driven by the goal of bringing world-class broadcasting to their campus community. Their mission was to learn from the best, and they sought out three of the country's most prestigious institutions.
They visited two of the prestigious Dominican Universities/Colleges in Manila. Colegio de San Juan de Letran, and The Pontifical and Royal University of Santo Tomas. Both institutions are known for their state-of-the-art equipment and strong media communications. They observed how campus radio was more than just a platform for music and announcements; it was a dynamic medium for student expression and education. Learning about the latest trends in broadcasting plays a vital role in communication among its stakeholders.
A hands-on experience at the radio station of ABS-CBN, the Philippines' largest radio and TV station gave Mr. Ed and Mr. Ian a thrill and excitement. They were exposed to the details of the operations of a radio station, from the technical aspects of sound engineering to the creative processes behind content production.
Thus, D'TORCH Campus Radio became a vital part of the school's culture, providing a platform for students to develop their broadcasting skills and a voice for the entire campus community.
The logo was designed by Mr. Adrian "Ian" Crisostomo, the MIT Head.
