International television: From within or outside the LLC, we are streaming live television from 5+ international channels. The television streaming will be best from within the LLC, however, students with fast internet connections should enjoy the stream from outside the LLC. Click on the link for stations and schedules.

Spanish TV: Television Nacional de Chile (150Kbps) and the Universidad Catolica - Canal 13 (220Kbps). You’ll need RealOne Player to watch and listen to these two stations (unfortunately you need to be outside the LLC as we don't support Real Player).
