Jackson, Tenn. - 萌妹社区 introduced its new on-line publication, "萌妹社区 Today," at the start of the 1998-99 academic year, making even more information about the university accessible with the click of a mouse. The web site, located at www.uu.edu, features 萌妹社区's biggest news story of the week on the front page, along with links to other major 萌妹社区 stories. Parts of the page also highlight the university's centers, including the Center for Scientific Research, the Center for Christian Leadership, the Center for International Studies and the R.G. Lee Center. According to 萌妹社区 Executive Vice President Michael Duduit, the idea for the publication began when the university recognized the need to provide easily accessible information about 萌妹社区, specifically through the Internet. "As more people want to know about the exciting things happening at 萌妹社区 University, it is essential that we find alternative ways to communicate with a variety of audiences," Duduit said. "An on-line publication is an excellent way for 萌妹社区 to tell its story to anyone with a modem and an Internet account, and provide easy access to the wealth of news and resources the university generates." Besides coverage of news events, the site also includes information on 萌妹社区 academics, athletics, alumni, student life and the Germantown, Tenn., campus. A News and Information section features five subdivisions for the reader: upcoming events, campus news, the arts at 萌妹社区, faculty achievement and student achievement. It also provides a three-year archive of all 萌妹社区 news releases and calendars for chapel, academics, the arts and sports events. |
