The University of Maine was mentioned in a Bangor Daily News article about the opening of a Searsport magnet school for students interested in maritime careers. The Maine Ocean School’s board has settled on logos and is ironing out governing documents, curriculum and programing. It plans to launch the school’s new website shortly after an information session Saturday, Nov. 5, according to the article. The six members of the school board represent the UMaine marine sciences program, Maine Maritime Academy in Castine, the Maine Marine Patrol and the town of Searsport, the article states.
