UMaine President Op-Ed in Portland Press Herald

An opinion column by University of Maine President Paul Ferguson in the Portland Press Herald addressed the university’s mission as a land grant institution of preparing UMaine graduates for successful careers and contributions to the state in fields like nanotechnology, climate change, sensor development, sustainability, public policy and offshore wind technologies.

The president cited the Blue Sky Project, which outlines five strategic pathways to enhance the university’s teaching, research, outreach, work force and economic development programs in a way that closely aligns with the priorities of the state.
