Last week U-M launched the Record Update, a new online companion to the weekly University Record that provides a brief and informative look at the news and issues that affect our campus on a daily basis.
In its first week, the Update delivered an in-depth look at a new interdisciplinary course called Creative Process and a feature on alternative spring break programs, and provided breaking news on Gov. Jennifer Granholm’s proposed budget, among other stories.
It can be viewed by going to ur.umich.edu/update.
The Record Update is a single Web page, accessible from the Gateway that is posted each morning. It provides a brief, vibrant summary of what is happening across campus as well as thoughtful perspectives on issues affecting U-M and higher education.
In addition to addressing emerging issues, the Record Update includes media quotes by U-M faculty, a photo or video feature, the weather, and a Michigan Difference story that highlights people and activities that are making a significant impact.
