Since its inception nine years ago, UMaine Today has become the true record of the University of Maine’s scholarly achievements and its teaching, research and engagement contributions. We are proud of our magazine and its Web site, both of which have been instrumental in helping us achieve many of our goals related to effectively telling UMaine’s story to a wide and varied audience.
Beginning with this issue, we are taking significant steps to broaden UMaine Today’s reach and impact. Most of you reading this message are UMaine alumni receiving UMaine Today for the first time. By expanding our mailing list to include all UMaine alumni, we are hoping to achieve a new level of engagement. Alums are a critically important constituency as we work together to advance the University of Maine and achieve our collective goals related to serving our students and our state.
Now, in addition to sharing the achievements of our students, faculty and others in our university community, we are modifying our content to include features about alums whose accomplishments reflect the character and quality of their alma mater. We are particularly pleased to present “Mac’s World,” a feature story about Malcolm Hunter, one of UMaine’s most accomplished faculty members and distinguished alumni.
I hope you enjoy this issue of UMaine Today and that you will visit the Web site for regular updates, expanded story coverage, and links to news and information about the University of Maine. We look forward to staying in touch with you through this quarterly publication and we sincerely hope you take advantage of the opportunities to learn more about the exciting initiatives happening at Maine’s flagship university.
