New Media Faculty in Report on Maine Rural Partners
Bill Kuykendall and Joline Blais of UMaine’s New Media Department were mentioned in a Village Soup online story as they discussed citizen media makers and the use of media to engage people with their own community during a meeting of the Orono-based nonprofit group Maine Rural Partners. Kuykendall called for a collaborative approach among professional and citizen media-makers to bring relevant news to the fore and stimulate community conversations about important issues.
