Distinguished Maine Policy Fellow Sen. Anne Haskell to be Honored

Sen. Anne Haskell, a Margaret Chase Smith Distinguished Maine Policy Fellow will be honored at a reception held at the University Club in Fogler Library at 4 p.m. Jan. 31.

Assistant Majority Leader Anne Haskell is serving her first term in the Senate, representing Maine’s District 9, which includes parts of Portland and Westbrook. She previously served six terms in the Maine House — three representing Gorham and three representing Portland. Haskell has been recognized as a fellow of the Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center, as she is a distinguished individual with a past or current career as a policymaker in the state of Maine.

The Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center brings its fellows to campus for a day to teach an undergraduate class, engage faculty about research and public policy, and meet with UMaine administration and graduate students.

The event is open to the public, and no RSVP is required.
