Abstract/ Summary

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 features include listings of newly released titles by UMaine authors, "Look Who's On Campus," an opinion column entitled "Viewpoint," and Classified Ads. Included in this issue are articles covering the involvement of the Pulp and Paper Pilot Plant in recycling research, the Labor Education Bureau's research into air quality in the workplace, and the result of a study suggesting that a majority of tubal ligation patients are not provided full disclosure of potential side effects of the sterilization procedure.
