Maine Perspective, v 11, i 15

The Maine Perspective, a publication for the University of Maine, was a campus newsletter produced by the Department of Public Affairs which eventually transformed into the Division of Marketing and Communication. Regular columns included the UM Calendar, Ongoing Events, People in Perspective, Look Who's on Campus, In Focus, and Along the Mall. The weekly newsletter also included position openings on campus as well as classified ads. Articles cover the appointment of a task force to study UMaine's role in K-12 education; the receipt of a $300,000 federal matching grant for the Maine Business School to develop an undergraduate concentration in International Business; and the creation of a fund by UMaine biologist and marine ecologist Susan Brawley to preserve the natural environment on the Orono campus.
