Maine's Attorney General was in Orono today to talk with Students.

Attorney General Janet Mills was at the U-Maine campus as part of the school's Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center Distinguished Maine Policy Fellow Program.

The program brings elected officials and policy makers in the state to the campus, and provides students with access to high-level public officials.

Mills says this is a great opportunity to create dialogue with students.

"See what's on their minds, to help them understand what the attorney general does. What people in Augusta, the politicians in Augusta are doing, and how we help in the political process. Ya know, they have opinions, they have different backgrounds, they have different views on things and it's really healthy, good to have that interaction." Says Mills.

Students and faculty had an opportunity to ask Mills about a variety of issues in a round table discussion. Mills also spent time talking to classes about more specific topics.
