Saint Anselm has a new home on the Web. In May, after many months of work and campus-wide collaboration, the Office of Public Relations unveiled the college's redesigned Web site. Visitors can check out our new look at www.anselm.edu.

The redesigned site offers several new features, including more than 500 pages of new and improved content, an online events calendar, campus directory, and profiles of current students.

As the college's most accessed and viewed publication, the college Web site serves a variety of constituencies including prospective and current students, faculty, staff, alumni, the media, and the public. Further development of the Web site will be ongoing and new features will be unveiled as they are completed. Among these are two new projects by the New Hampshire Institute of Politics.

The institute's newly launched NHIOP-TV features exclusive video interviews with presidential candidates and political strategists. Visitors to the site can see and hear interviews with Senior White House Advisor Karl Rove, democratic presidential candidates Gov. Howard Dean and John Edwards, former New Hampshire Gov. Hugh Gregg, and former White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry. Additional interviews will be added to the site as they happen. To access the NHIOP-TV media room, go to www.anselm.edu/nhiop and click on the NHIOP-TV link.

The institute's partnership with the nation's largest newspaper, USA Today, recently spawned the new Web site www.americasyouthforum.org. More than 200 teachers and their students from across the country will utilize the Web site as part of an eight-week, curriculum-based program that seeks to engage 18-to-24-year-old voters throughout the nation in the upcoming presidential election process. The site will serve as a forum for studying issues important to young voters and allow teachers and students the opportunity to participate in a dialogue with national political reporters, analysts, and the presidential candidates.
