This show is being postponed to a later date as we broadcast national coverage of the Presidential election results.

The Harold Alfond Foundation recently announced a grant of more than $500 million to higher education and research institutions in Maine, with the goal of fostering growth and opportunities for Maine's future. We learn about the diverse ways in which the grant recipients will apply those funds, and what they see as the best approaches to promote Maine's economy.
