Honors, political science student writes about research in BDN
University of Maine student Jaymi Thibault wrote an article for the Bangor Daily News titled “Bangor wants to know how to communicate with you. Here’s your chance to spill.” Thibault is an undergraduate political science student and member of the Honors College. This year, Thibault will be conducting research in collaboration with the city of Bangor to examine which methods of communication residents prefer when it comes to hearing from the city, as well as what types of information residents want to know, according to the article. The research will help decision makers in Bangor hone their community outreach methods to ensure that residents are getting the information they need, the article states. A survey for Bangor residents is online. Those interested in participating in an hour-long focus group discussing the issues in greater depth can contact Thibault at jaymi.thibault@maine.edu or 402.0135.
