Life at UMaine in the 1950s Detailed

Geral Coulombe’s “Maine Observer” column in the Sept. 12 Maine Sunday Telegram described life as a newly-married student and Korean War veteran at UMaine in the 1950s.  Coulombe, a retired school administrator who lives in Connecticut, wrote about the “South Apartments,” mostly occupied by married students but also by some faculty members.  Those professors included his neighbor, the late UMaine anthropology and English professor Sandy Ives.
