Methodology: The study has been carried out by providing examples such as visual culture, media philosophy, child TV and culture-building. This research studies the culture-building practices of Baharestan TV and generally examined whether Baharestan TV has a fundamental philosophy underlying the appropriate culture-building practices of student's television, and how is the effect of this medium on mental and psychological health of student audiences. Findings: This study has used the Persian, English, Tajik and Russian books on student's television, an interview with the staff and the management of Baharestan TV, watching this TV, and watching about 14 months of Baharestan TV programs in 2012 and 2013. 6 months out of these 14 months were analyzed and a researcher-made questionnaire has been used to measure the effect of Baharestan TV on Persian-speaking students of Iran, Tajikistan and Afghanistan. The programs of Baharestan TV, the face-to-face interviews, the researcher's analysis, and the comparison with successful models indicate that this TV is not sufficiently expert as a student TV. Discussion: Due to the fact that the Russian or American programs are widely used in the Baharestan TV of Tajikistan by and there are limited programs with native and Islamic culture, student audiences are faced with identity crisis.
