"This mimeographed newspaper in miniature was distributed at assemblies or from the cafeteria counters every Wednesday, with few exceptions, throughout the school year. It served a useful purpose in providing publicity concerning diversified college affairs. The paper contained announcements of interest to both students and faculty concerning coming events. It also served as a vehicle for commentaries and reviews of recent happenings on campus. Much of the appeal of the paper stems from its wholly informal, and at times, even flippant tone. This characteristic gave the Newsance a genuine quality which seemed to ring true, reflecting as it did the enthusiasm and high spirit of the students. Although the paper has no pretensions to literary excellence, some of the articles do show very careful thinking and clever use of English." This publication was a continuation of the "PJC Newsance" (1948-1957). Portland Junior College bacame the University of Maine In Portland in 1958.
