Maine Hello is a campus-wide event wherein returning students, faculty, and staff members from across the university volunteer to welcome new students and their families as they arrive on campus! Stay tuned to this page as we post more information throughout the summer. More updates will be posted as we get closer to the big day! We can’t wait to welcome our newest Black Bears!

FOR VOLUNTEERS: We’re also always looking for volunteers to help with Maine Hello! Our Maine Hello 2025 Volunteer Registration link is now open – just click the button below!
