Many brilliant notions W that strike us just slip through the cracks before we have a chance to process them, especially because as students we are exposed to new information and are having new experi- ences and readjusting our own goals and philosophies on a daily basis. The richness of our academic setting often being the source of such inspiration, our half-baked theories about pursuing excellence are typically ones that, if developed, would be em- braced and taken on by several other members of the univer- sity community. However, the task of advertising and recruiting support for our schemes is daunting, and well-meaning, though we may be, we more often than not deign to even try to get them off the ground. Thanks to Pathway 3 of UMaine President Paul Ferguson’s Blue Sky Project, the resources previously at students’ disposal for such endeavors have become infinitely more accessible, with the promise of continually improving ease of usability and navigation for UMaine community members who want to gar- ner support for their causes and organizations. At the Communicators Summit held Wednesday and attend- ed by members of the university’s many departments, a pro- posal for how to enhance communication across the university was introduced. This integration of departments may not seem like it would have tangible benefits to students — indeed, it sounds fairly theoretical and it would be hard to describe with- out sounding like mere lip service to warm, fuzzy ideals like unity and community — but there are in fact some significant changes being implemented that are worthy of mention and, dare we say, praise.
