История [ править ]

Кирпичный зал (1871 г.), позже переименованный в Дубовый зал, сгорел в 1936 г.

Университет штата Мэн был основан в 1862 году в соответствии с Законом Моррилла , подписанным президентом Авраамом Линкольном . Основанный в 1865 году как Государственный колледж сельского хозяйства и механики штата Мэн , колледж открылся 21 сентября 1868 года и в 1897 году изменил свое название на Университет штата Мэн [8].

К 1871 г. были организованы учебные программы по сельскому хозяйству, инженерному делу и факультативам. Экспериментальная станция сельского хозяйства и лесов штата Мэн была основана как подразделение университета в 1887 году. Постепенно в университете были созданы Колледжи естественных наук и сельского хозяйства (позже включенные в Школу лесных ресурсов и Школу человеческого развития), инженерии и науки, и искусства и науки. В 1912 году было начато создание Кооперативного расширения штата Мэн, которое предлагает образовательные программы для взрослых и молодежи. Педагогическая школа была основана в 1930 году и получила статус колледжа в 1958 году. Школа делового администрирования была образована в 1958 году и получила статус колледжа в 1965 году. С 1872 года женщин принимают во все учебные программы. Первая степень магистра была присуждена в 1881 году. ; Первая докторская степень в 1960 г.С 1923 г. здесь действует отдельная аспирантура.[9]

Ближе к концу XIX века университет расширил свою учебную программу, сделав больший упор на гуманитарные науки . В результате этого перехода на факультет, нанятый в начале 20-го века, была Кэролайн Колвин , заведующая кафедрой истории и первая женщина в стране, возглавившая крупное университетское отделение. [10]

В 1906 году было основано Общество Чести Старших Черепов, чтобы «публично признать, официально вознаградить и постоянно продвигать выдающееся лидерство, стипендию и образцовое гражданство в сообществе Университета штата Мэн». [11]

16 апреля 1925 года 80 женщин встретились в Балентин-холле - преподаватели, выпускницы и студенты - чтобы спланировать присягу членов в основную почетную организацию. Эта организация получила название «Все женщины штата Мэн», потому что только женщины, тесно связанные с Университетом штата Мэн, были избраны членами. 22 апреля 1925 г. новые члены были приняты в Общество чести. [12]

Когда в 1968 году была включена система Университета штата Мэн, школа была переименована законодательным органом, несмотря на возражения факультета Университета штата Мэн в Ороно. Это было изменено обратно на Университет штата Мэн в 1986 году. [13]

Организация и администрация [ править ]

Университет штата Мэн является флагманом системы Университета штата Мэн. [6] [14] [15] [16] Президент университета - Джоан Феррини-Манди . [17] Высшее руководство управляет совместно с ректором системы Университета штата Мэн Дэннелом Маллоем.и шестнадцать членов Попечительского совета Университета штата Мэн (из которых пятнадцать назначаются губернатором штата Мэн, а один является нынешним уполномоченным по вопросам образования штата Мэн). Попечительский совет несет полную юридическую ответственность и полномочия в отношении университетской системы. Он назначает ректора и каждого президента университета, утверждает создание и отмену академических программ, назначает постоянное место преподавателям и устанавливает ставки оплаты за обучение / операционные бюджеты. [18]

UMaine также является одним из немногих колледжей в Соединенных Штатах, чье студенческое самоуправление зарегистрировано. [19] Студенческое самоуправление было сформировано в 1978 году и зарегистрировано в 1987 году. Оно классифицировано как некоммерческая корпорация 501 (c) (3). [20] Он состоит из законодательной ветви власти, которая принимает решения, и исполнительной ветви власти, которая помогает организовать развлекательные мероприятия на территории кампуса и приглашенных ораторов, работает с новыми и существующими студенческими организациями и выполняет другие обязанности. Другие организации подпадают под действие Student Government Inc., включая представительские советы, общественные ассоциации и многие другие студенческие группы. Студенческая газета Maine Campus также зарегистрирована и не работает в рамках студенческого самоуправления и не получает от него денег.

Situated on Marsh Island, between the Penobscot and Stillwater rivers, the University of Maine is the nation's only land grant university (other than the University of Hawai'i) on an island.[21] Occupying the small city of Orono, population ~9,500,[22] the 660-acre (2.7 km2) campus[22] has an enrollment (2012–2013) of 10,901 students.[23] The campus has thirty-seven academic buildings, thirty administrative buildings, eighteen residence halls, eighteen specific laboratory facilities, fourteen Greek life houses, ten sports facilities, five museums,[24] three dining facilities, two convenience stores, a student union, a cafe, a pub,[25] an 87,000-square-foot (8,100 m2) state of the art recreation and fitness center,[26] and a 200'x200' air supported athletic/recreational dome.[27]

In 1867, the university rejected a campus plan by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, who designed Central Park in New York City and the White House grounds in Washington, D.C.[28][29] The plan's broad concepts, including the Front Lawn, were nevertheless adopted during the school's first fifty years, and were oriented toward the Stillwater River. A second master plan was produced in 1932 by Carl Rust Parker of the Olmsted Brothers firm, which reoriented the campus center to the Mall, an open grassy area between the Raymond H. Fogler Library and the Memorial Gym.[30] The Mall is further bordered by one residence and five academic halls.

The campus is essentially divided into three sections (northern, southern, and hilltop),[31] all of which are near or border the Mall. The northern section includes many of the athletic facilities, including the Alfond Arena (basketball, hockey), Morse Field at the Alfond Sports Stadium (football, track and field), Larry Mahaney Diamond (baseball), Kessock Field (softball), the Field Hockey Complex (field hockey), and the Mahaney athletic/recreational dome. Other buildings on the northern section include the Cutler Health Center, two administrative halls, three residence halls, and multiple academic halls.

The southern section of campus includes the Memorial Student Union, the Maynard F. Jordan Observatory, Lengyel Gymnasium and Athletic Field, the Buchanan Alumni House, as well as multiple administrative, residence, and academic halls. The recently renovated Collins Center for the Arts is also on the southern part of campus, and not only provides the Hutchins Concert Hall, a 1,435-seat venue for performing artists from around the world,[32] but also houses the Hudson Museum, known for its contemporary Native American art, as well as displays that are culturally specific to the indigenous people of Maine. The Hilltop section of campus is populated largely with residence halls but also includes the 7-acre (2.8 ha) Lyle E. Littlefield Ornamental Gardens,[33] as well as academic and recreational facilities. The campus is also designated as an arboretum.[34]

The pre-1915 core of the campus, covering its earliest period of development, was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978; this was expanded to include the second major phase of development (through the end of World War II) in 2010.[30]

Ambulance Service[edit]

The University of Maine operates the "University Volunteer Ambulance Corps," an Ambulance service fully licensed by the State of Maine. The service is operated by students and staff of the University. UVAC's ambulances are available to respond to emergencies on campus and can also provide mutual aid to many surrounding towns and agencies. The service ensures a licensed Emergency Medical Technician is sent on every call. The service has two ambulances both equipped to provide Paramedic Level care. UVAC responds to approximately 500 calls per school year.[35]

Sustainability[edit]

The University of Maine is one of 16 colleges and universities listed in Princeton Review's "Green Honor Roll" (2011). Several of the nation's leading research universities, including Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech, Oregon State, Arizona State and the University of Washington are also on that prestigious list, as are Harvard and Northeastern. Recognizing schools for their commitment to sustainability, the Green Honor Roll lists only those 16 institutions that received the highest possible score on The Princeton Review green rating. The guide lauds UMaine for its recycling programs, green-certified buildings and free shuttle bus service. It also notes the fact UMaine has a sustainability coordinator, a sustainability council, and "Eco Reps" in its residence halls.[37]

University of Maine has a sustainability council made up of students, faculty, administrators, staff and a full-time sustainability coordinator. A green loan fund provides capital for energy efficiency and renewable energy investments.[38] The university has committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2040, and two residential-scale solar thermal systems are in place on Nutting Hall and Sebec House. The University of Maine composts food scraps from dining facilities, and York Dining Hall has gone trayless to reduce waste. For all new campus construction, LEED Silver standards are required.[39] The Blue Bike program refurbishes abandoned bikes and rents them to students free of charge, providing a means of alternative transportation on and around-campus.[40]

Academics[edit]

The University of Maine offers more than 90 undergraduate major programs organized in five colleges: the College of Education and Human Development; the College of Engineering; the Honors College; the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences; and the College of Natural Sciences, Forestry and Agriculture. UMaine also is home to one of the nation's oldest honors programs, now called the Honors College.[47] The Honors College offers academically qualified students an opportunity for intensive, interdisciplinary study. Students are invited to become part of the Honors College during the admissions review process. UMaine also offers a wide array of graduate programs, including more than seventy master's degree programs and thirty doctorate programs.[48][49]

Hannibal Hamlin Hall

The University of Maine is one of only a handful of institutions to offer a combined developmental/clinical Ph.D. to students accepted into their clinical psychology Ph.D. program,[50] as well as advanced degrees with distinct concentrations in developmental psychology, social psychology, cognitive psychology, and behavioral neuroscience.[51] The University of Maine has a strong commitment to developing the next generation of neuroscience researchers and educators, thus along with offering a Ph.D. in psychological science with a concentration in behavioral neuroscience, they also offer a neuroscience concentration for Ph.D. students studying biomedical science.[52]

It is the only institution in Maine ranked as a national university in the U.S. News and World Report annual rankings. U.S. News categorizes UMaine as an institution that offers "a full range of undergraduate majors, master's, and doctoral degrees."[53]

UMaine is one of only four institutions in Maine (along with Bowdoin, Bates, and Colby) accredited to award membership into the Phi Beta Kappa honor society.[54]

The university is also the birthplace of the Phi Kappa Phi honor society, recognizing high academic achievement across all disciplines.[55]

The Raymond H. Fogler Library is the largest in Maine[56] and serves as one of its intellectual hubs, attracting scholars, professors, and researchers from around the state.[57] A collection of rare and ancient manuscripts, as well as about two million government publications, augment the University's collection.[58] The Special Collections Unit includes the Stephen King (author and UMaine alumnus) papers, which attract researchers from across the globe.

UMaine hosts the Intensive English Institute, an English as a second language program designed to help students develop their English language skills for success in school, business, and social communication.[59] Due to budget cuts during the COVID-19 pandemic, the IEI was discontinued as of May 31, 2020.[60]

The University of Maine is also home to the Maine Business School, the largest business school in the state. Paris-based international educational consulting organization Eduniversal has included the Maine Business School at the University of Maine among its selection of 1,000 of the world's best business schools, ranking it as an "excellent business school-nationally strong and/or with continental links."[61] In 2011, U.S. News and World Report ranked the Maine Business School among the nation's best business colleges[62]

The Canadian-American Center, an institution that focuses on Canadian-American studies is based at the University of Maine.[63]

Accreditation[edit]

The University of Maine is regionally accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges and programmatically accredited by other accreditors including the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, the American Chemical Society, the American Dietetic Association, the American Psychological Association, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, the Computing Sciences Accreditation Board, the Council on Social Work Education, the National Association of Schools of Music, the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration, the Council for the advancement of Educator Preparation, the Society of American Foresters, and the Society of Wood Science and Technology.[64]

Research[edit]

The University of Maine is one of the National Science Foundation's top 100 public universities for research. In FY10, UMaine exceeded $100 million in external expenditures for research, 86% of which was federal funding. Leading sectors of the university in generating external support are advanced materials, marine sciences, climate change, environmental studies, forestry, precision manufacturing, and aquaculture. Undergraduate research is a priority at UMaine, and in 2008, the Center for Undergraduate Research was established to connect students with faculty projects that suit their interests.[66]

The University of Maine has several research areas that operate as independent units under the umbrella of the University of Maine. While these units house and fund faculty, staff, and students from a variety of academic backgrounds and colleges, the research units are independent of the traditional departmental and college structure.

Independent research units at the University of Maine include:

UMaine Advanced Structures and Composites Center[edit]

The UMaine Advanced Structures and Composites Center, founded in 1996 with support from the National Science Foundation, provides research, education, and economic development encompassing material sciences, manufacturing and engineering of composites and structures. The center's research and development projects have included the VolturnUS 1:8, composite arch bridge system, and the Modular Ballistic Protection System (MBPS).

The center is the leading member of the DeepCwind Consortium, whose mission is to establish the State of Maine as a national leader in deepwater offshore wind technology.[67]

Multisensory Interactive Media Lab[edit]

Founded in 2018, the Multisensory Interactive Media Lab (MIM Lab) is moving into an era of ‘Internet of Everything,’ in which everything and everyone will be digitally embedded and connected. In the MIM Lab of the University of Maine, academic researchers develop novel enabling technologies to explore the immense potential for the communication of our experiences – shifting focus from the current age of information towards a new age of experience. Many of their research works try to answer a fundamental question “How can we move beyond traditional visual- and auditory-based digital interfaces to form immersive sensory rich interactions in the context of real-world, augmented or virtual experiences?”.[68]

UMaine Deepwater Offshore Wind Test Site at Monhegan Island[edit]

The University of Maine was granted an ocean energy demonstration site through state legislation in 2009. The site, known as the UMaine Deepwater Offshore Wind Test Site, is available for use by commercial and non-commercial entities in partnership with the university to research and develop ocean energy devices, such as floating wind turbines or wave energy converters.

Forest Land Resources[edit]

The University of Maine is responsible for over 14,000 acres (5,700 ha) of land across Maine which is used for research and recreation.[69] Among the most prominent are: Aroostook Farm, (Presque Isle, Maine); Bear Brook Watershed, (Hancock County, Maine); Dwight B. Demeritt Forest, (Orono, Maine / Old Town, Maine); Fay Hyland Bog, (Orono / Veazie, Maine); and Hirundo Wildlife Refuge, (Old Town, Maine).

Bureau of Labor Education[edit]

The Bureau of Labor Education at the University of Maine in August 1966 with funds appropriated by the Maine Legislature. Its mission is to ensure that “appropriate and specialized educational programs (be made) available to members of the Maine labor force, both organized and unorganized.” Historian Charles Scontras has been affiliated with the BLE since its founding with his first book being published also in 1966.[70]

Athletics[edit]

Maine Division 1 Hockey

The University of Maine participates in the NCAA's Division I level,[71] and is a member of the Colonial Athletic Association for football,[72] Hockey East for ice hockey,[73] and the America East Conference for all other sports.[74] The school has won two national championships, both in men's ice hockey. In 1993, they defeated Lake Superior State University 5–4 behind a third period hat trick by Jim Montgomery. In 1999, they defeated rival University of New Hampshire 3–2 in overtime on a goal by Marcus Gustafsson.[75]

In 1965, the football team competed in the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida against East Carolina. They were beaten in the game 31–0,[76] but remain the only team from Maine to compete in a bowl contest. In the 2018 season they went to the FCS Semifinal, eventually losing to Eastern Washington.

The baseball team has participated in seven College World Series, six of them under coach John Winkin between 1976 and 1986, and one under Jack Butterfield in 1964. The Black Bears achieved two third-place finishes in 1964 and 1982.

Although the official fight song of UMaine is "For Maine", the school's main spirit song is the better-known "Maine Stein Song". Written by Lincoln Colcord (words) and E. A. Fenstad (music), the tune rose to fame when singer Rudy Vallée arranged the current version. Vallee attended Maine from 1921–1922 before transferring to Yale, and his popularity helped make the song a national favorite. To this day, the "Stein Song" remains the only college fight song to ever reach number one on the pop charts, achieving this distinction in 1930.[77] According to College Fight Songs: An Annotated Anthology, by Studwell and Schueneman, the "Stein Song" is one of the very best fight songs of all time.[78]

In addition to varsity athletics, the university offers many club sports through its Campus Recreation department. Sport clubs represent UMaine by competing against teams and clubs from other universities and colleges. National governing bodies for each club provide competition guidelines and league structure.

Sport clubs are student-led and student-administered. Each has a budget that is run through Campus Recreation, which in part funds nearly all clubs. Clubs are eligible for funding through Campus Recreation after they have been active for at least one year and have a membership minimum of ten members. Current club sports include alpine skiing, baseball, crew, cricket, cycling, fast pitch softball, field hockey, golf, ice hockey, lacrosse, nordic skiing, roller hockey, rugby, shotokan karate, soccer, tennis, table tennis, tackle football, ultimate, and volleyball.[79]
