LIVE: So We're Growing, Now What? (10am)

By Laura Knoy on Friday, June 10, 2005.

New Hampshire is growing and growing fast. All week long we've looked at the different aspects of growth, from economics and environment to politics and psychology and seen how it has affected us directly. In the final installment of our series we look at how we as a state prepare to move forward and deal with the inevitability of growth and change in New Hampshire. Laura's guests are Steve Taylor, Commissioner for the NH Department of Agriculture and Mary Ann Manoogian, Director of the NH Office of Energy and Planning.

LIVE: Growth and the New Hampshire Identity Crisis

By Laura Knoy on Friday, June 10, 2005.

We're not Cow Hampshire anymore, at least that's what some people say. New people are coming for the small town charm and wanting to close the door behind them, but in their wake are more houses, higher taxes and a change in the cultural landscape of the state. In our fifth installment we look at the cultural and psychological aspects of growth, how we reconcile our ideas about what New Hampshire is, was and is becoming. Laura's guests are Jamie Trowbridge, President of Yankee Publishing, John Clayton, Columnist for the New Hampshire Union Leader and Sunday News and Stu Wallace, Professor of History at the New Hampshire Technical Institute.
