1st Logo (1980s-Early 1990s)
Logo: On a nighttime view of the Pulliam Hall clock tower in the Southern Illinois University, we see a lime green "WSIU" with a bigger "TV" below it, with a giant "8" next to it. Below the text is "CARBONDALE". After the announcer finishes speaking, the logo flies up, beginning the program.
Technique: The logo flying up.

2nd Logo (1990s)
Logo: A short montage of various screens and devices in a studio is seen, with each camera shot fading into each other. One of the screens displays the 1993 PBS logo. After three seconds, a close-up shot of a spinning reel is shown, and white text reading " A PRODUCTION OF WSIU8 Carbondale" fades in and is chyroned over the shot of the spinning reel. "WSIU8" is in sans-serif and slanted inwards, "A PRODUCTION OF" is in a serif font, and "Carbondale" is in a monospace font. After about 2 1/2 seconds, the logo fades.
