The University of Maine Libra Professor of Geological Sciences with the School of Earth and Climate Sciences and the Climate Change Institute has spent years tackling large research questions surrounding abrupt climate change, particularly “the history of glaciers seeking clues as to when, why, and how they transform,” according to the foundation’s story about his work. He has also dedicated himself to training the next generation of scientists through his classes at UMaine. “Get the young people deeply involved in the research. “Once they’re deeply involved, they learn fast and they come up with new ideas,” Denton said. The foundation also spoke with former students and current UMaine faculty Brenda Hall, professor of glacial geology in the School of Earth and Climate Sciences and the CCI, and Aaron Putnam, an assistant professor in the School of Earth and Climate Sciences and CCI, about Denton’s work and influence. “The beauty of it is he really teaches people how to become independent thinkers, not just to learn a method or something, but really to think about how the world works,” Putnam said. The foundation, which finances efforts to advance healthcare, education, environmental science and culture, has helped fund research expeditions for Denton and his students, and founder Gary Comer created the Comer Fellowship with the UMaine Libra Professor.

  • Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities
    Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities Healthy people, healthy businesses, healthy governments — healthy communities — are all best informed and engaged by independent community journalists who examine school budgets, expose scandals, question practices and politics, scrutinize environmental practices, who champion good and who dare to challenge fear and falsehoods. The work we do in our newsrooms enhances community life, it exposes mental and social health care problems and brings solutions forward, it relentlessly exposes overspending in our governments, and highlights the great people who live and work all around us. Communities are healthier, more engaged, more resilient and better able to thrive when informed by truth.

    MEDIA RELEASE - AFL (NSW/ACT) Wednesday, April 2 Henson Park to host five Sydney AFL matches this Saturday With the celebrations for 150 years of Australian Football underway, Sydney AFL will be creating some history of its own this weekend, with an entire round of senior football scheduled over one day at Henson Park for the season opener. This Saturday, footy fans will be treated to over 12 hours of Australian Football action, with all five Round One matches of the Sydney AFL taking place at the newly renovated facility. Henson Park, home of the Newtown Jets, has recently undergone a $250,000 upgrade, and this will be the first opportunity for Sydney AFL to take centre stage at the refurbished ground. Garry Burkinshaw, Senior Football Operations Coordinator for AFL (NSW/ACT) said that this was an exciting milestone for the Sydney AFL competition and signaled the leagues continued development as a premier sporting competition. “This is an important year for Australian Football across all levels of competition and Sydney AFL is no exception. As a competition the standard and support is growing rapidly and being able to provide fans with an entire day and night of Australian Football is a fantastic opportunity. “It is also the perfect platform to showcase some of the emerging talent coming through. Fans will be able to see the next generation of AFL stars in action with many of the NSW Rams players taking part in matches, along with some of the AFL Scholarship holders,” said Burkinshaw.
