The Indigenous  language project supports the University’s Diversity Action Plan by communicating clearly and affirmatively the University’s commitment to diversity, and supporting the retention of both employees and students of difference through  a climate of inclusiveness. Bilingual English and Penobscot signage sends a message that the Indigenous community is valued, supported and included as part of the university community.

Modifications to existing signage and installation of new signage for the entrance signs, building signs, road signs and signs at other significant sites show respect for the Penobscot traditional territory upon which the university is built.
