The Maine Journalist, was a news publication created by students in the University of Maine Department of Journalism between February, 1950 and May, 1952. The publication's brief run documents the impact of the Korean War draft on students majoring in journalism as the paper's early, upbeat tone dims with coverage of the affect of conscription on civilian journalists.
The publication's run featured stories highlighting the activities and profiles of junior and senior journalism majors as well as professional journalists and newspaper publications across the state of Maine. The student paper was distributed to newspaper offices statewide, introducing managing editors to graduating students and introducing budding journalists to the news industry.
