The Max Kolb Telethon is a 90 minute broadcast produced by Hofstra University television production students, raising money for a film program scholarship in the name of Max Kolb, a former student who was lost his life in 2002. The annual show traditionally  features live musical acts, interviews with filmmakers, and much more. Since its first airing, the Telethon has raised more than $75,000 thanks to the dedication of the program’s student producers and donors.
