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 research by UMaine Civil Engineers into the effectiveness of rumble strips on the highway, the award of $925,000 to UMaine marine scientists to study internal waves in the Gulf of Maine, and a feature profile of Izetta Turlott with Environmental Health and Safety.
