Media cover Maine CDC's award of $3.5 million to UNE for College of Dental Medicine

UNE's announcement that it was awarded $3.5 million from the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention toward a teaching clinic for its College of Dental Medicine was covered by a number of state and national media, including the Portland Press Herald, MPBN radio, the Kennebec Journal, and online media such as Dentistry IQ, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Cincinnati Enquirer.

The funds, along with a $2.3 million leadership commitment from Northeast Delta Dental, will be used to help startup costs associated with opening the first College of Dental Medicine in northern New England in the fall of 2013.
