Marquette, MI – (Great Lakes Radio News) – This time around on Wildcat Wednesday, we hear more about the Northern Michigan University Educational Access Network, or EAN.

Eric Smith, Director of Broadcast and Audio-Visual Services at NMU, and member of the EAN Deployment Team, joined the Sunny Morning Show today to explain more about the effort.

Smith explained what the EAN is and why it exists, as well as what it is intended to do.

He said the main reason NMU has invested in the EAN is increase broadband internet access in rural locations around the Upper Peninsula and bring educational programs and services to those who may not be able to come to campus.

Smith added that the technical set up is relatively simple and EAN access is open to all in their established service areas, not just NMU students, faculty or staff.
