A Magnificent Fund Consistent giving over many years can have an extremely significant and positive impact at The University of Maine. Nowhere is this better illustrated than by the Nathan Levitan Scholarship Fund. In 1900 Nathan Levitan and his family moved to the United States from Poland when he was just four years old. After growing up in Massachu­ setts, he became employed in “the needle trade” in that same state. While he was unable to attend college, he did provide financial support for his children so that they could go to college. He also provided his children with a strong ethical upbringing. Years later, in 1959, his son, Leon Levitan, Ph.D., a member of the Class of 1938 at The University of Maine, decided to honor his father through the establishment of the Nathan Levitan Scholarship Fund at the University of Maine Foundation. The initial gift was $5,000, and every year since, Dr. Dr. Leon Levitan ’38 Levitan has contributed to the fund. When the fund was established, former University of Maine President Lloyd Elliott stated that many UMaine students “will certainly benefit through the years from this magnificent fund.” What has the impact been of Dr. Levitan’s consistent giving to this “magnificent fund”? • Through the summer of 2004, a total of $51,000 in gifts given over 45 successive years. • Through the summer of 2004, a fund that was worth approximately $101,170. • A total of over $133,000 in scholarships awarded to over 200 students. Consistency in giving, when coupled with the power of compounding interest and appreciation, can positively alter countless lives. Dr. Levitan’s consistent giving has done just that. In the fall of 2004 Dr. Levitan made an additional very generous gift to the Nathan Levitan Scholarship Fund, thus substantially increasing the total value of the fund. For more information on how you too can establish a “magnificent fund,” even with a modest gift, contact Amos Orcutt '64, CEO/President of the Foundation.

Business attraction, expansion, creation, and retention require a trained and experienced workforce. Maine has a great reputation for worker productivity, reliability, honesty, and integrity. As we look to the jobs of the future, I can not overemphasize the importance of higher education to position us for prosperity. As Governor I have helped provide significant research and development funding at the University of Maine, leveraging additional federal and private research dollars. R & D funding at UMaine has nearly tripled since Maine re-prioritized these investments in 1998. I’m excited that UMaine is partnering with private enterprise to market new products and technologies. Every year, companies related to UMaine research are being created by students or recent graduates. As Governor, I am focused on expanding economic development opportunities in Maine with many aggressive and innovative initiatives. Maine’s new Pine Tree Development Zones provide significant incentives for new ventures seeking to locate in western, central, eastern, and northern Maine. Small business start-ups in biotechnology, information technology, aquaculture, agriculture, forestry, composites, precision manufacturing, and environmental technologies can access seed funding and assistance from the Maine Technology Institute and Maine’s network of business incubators. The University of Maine has over 80,000 alumni, located throughout the world, representing all fields and profes­ sions. I am a proud alumnus of the University of Maine, as are many members of my cabinet and staff. Each of us is focused on growing quality jobs for all of the people in Maine. Whether you are a corporate executive thinking about expanding or relocating, someone interested in starting a business, or someone looking for new opportunities, please take a close look at what is happening in Maine. As an alumnus, you already know Maine, its people, and its quality of life. We are positioned for high quality job growth.

    Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities Healthy people, healthy businesses, healthy governments — healthy communities — are all best informed and engaged by independent community journalists who examine school budgets, expose scandals, question practices and politics, scrutinize environmental practices, who champion good and who dare to challenge fear and falsehoods. The work we do in our newsrooms enhances community life, it exposes mental and social health care problems and brings solutions forward, it relentlessly exposes overspending in our governments, and highlights the great people who live and work all around us. Communities are healthier, more engaged, more resilient and better able to thrive when informed by truth.

  • How Trump Could Help Decide Who Wins Control of the Maine Senate
    Page 1 1 of 76 DOCUMENTS Bangor Daily News (Maine) September 25, 2018 Tuesday How Trump could help decide who wins control of the Maine Senate BYLINE: Michael Shepherd BDN Staff LENGTH: 1492 words Good morning from Augusta, where new sexual assault allegations against President Donald Trump's Su- preme Court nominee and confusion about the job status of the deputy attorney general got us thinking about where the president is most and least popular in Maine. We sorted the results of the 2016 presidential election between Trump, a Republican, and Democrat Hillary Clinton by Maine Senate district. It reveals some parallels to national polling showing that under Trump, Re- publicans are increasingly struggling in suburban areas that they have held in the past. Maine is lukewarm on Trump as a whole. A recent poll from Suffolk University found a 41 percent approval rating for the president here, which effectively matched past polls from Morning Consult that put the state near the middle of the pack nationally on Trump. The subtle divisions in his approval could be a key factor in elections here. Some of the most interesting ones come when thinking about control of the Maine Senate, which is controlled by Republicans who hold just a 18-17 lead on Democrats. The smallest switch could flip it. There are eight districts where Trump won a majority of votes. The one where he was most popular is held by a Democrat. Trump, who won the 2nd Congressional District but lost Maine at large to Clinton, only won majorities in eight of Maine's 35 Senate districts.
