Iowa City KSUI celebrates 25 years of classical music by asking listeners to vote. Beethoven's Ninth Symphony was named the favorite after a daily vote, with ties causing an extra entry to appear on the final list.
The station aired 26 pieces due to ties in the rankings. No. 5 Emperor 14 and Barber Adagio for Strings 15 are noted, with Tallis Spem in Alium 23, Gorecki Symphony No 3 24, and ties for Dvorak String Quartet No 12 and Saint-Saens Symphony No 3 Organ 26. Handel Organ Concerto op 44 also featured.
Sherman notes daily 1 p.m. tuning helps reflect Iowa City listeners interests. Voters chose favorites from Sept 15 to Nov 15 with nearly 200 pieces nominated. First place votes carry 3 points and third place 1 point. KSUI has aired 24 hour classical music since 1977.

Des Moines report notes the Iowa Board of Regents may need a sizable rise above the current 281,875 interim UI president salary as they prepare to select a new UI leader. The piece compares UI pay with peers and highlights higher figures at Michigan and Texas systems.

Regents may raise ISU and UI presidents to match future US president increases.
