General University of Maine Publications

One would think that after winning 50 games and two regular season conference crowns during the last two seasons, the University of Maine women’s basketball team would be ready for a break. Maybe the team would be content to look back at past achievements.

Perhaps the Black Bears need a rest after a successful campaign in which they won the America East Conference crown and advanced to the NCAA Tournament. Or possibly, Maine might think its goals and expectations are lowered after losing two-time America East Player of the Year Heather Ernest.

A long time in the making, the Women’s Hockey East Association proudly commenced official league play in the 2002-03 season. As women’s ice hockey steadily expanded from its original status as an emerging sport to its current status as an NCAA championship sport, it became apparent that Hockey East should seriously consider sponsoring a separate league to accommodate its five member schools that had varsity programs: Boston College, Maine, New Hampshire, Northeastern, and Providence. However, little got beyond the level of discussion and conjecture in the early stages as administrators remained unsure of how to undergo the transition process. The …

Yet despite my years of working with computers, I had little idea at that time of the revolutionary promise that computing held for scholarship in disciplines like my own. More than a decade of living on the Web later, I recognize the potential of …
