This same spirit has also helped guide the development of higher education in the state of Maine. For over 100 years, the predeces­ sors of what today is known as the University of Southern Maine have shared a continuing concern to provide an educat ion appropriate to changing circumstances and responsive to the character and sense of ad­ venture of their students. In 1878, the Western Maine Normal School was founded at Gorham. Its mission broadened and its student body grew, and in 1945 it became Gorham State Te achers College. Similarly, Portland Junior College, de­ veloped in 1933 to bring higher educat ion within commuting distance of a growing population, became the University of Maine at Portland in 1957. The two institutions were joined in 1970 as the University of Maine at Portland-Gorham, and in 1978 became known as the University of Southern Maine. Looking back over the history of those schools and col­ leges, one can appreciate that the University today is stronger because each of its predecessors grew with the times and the students they served. Not surprisingly, each college and university in the country likes to think of itself as unique, as offering experiences unavailable at other insti­ tutions of higher learning. To be sure, the University of Southern Maine has many characteristics typical of medium-sized, public universities elsewhere in the United States. It comprises seven academic units (Arts and Sciences, Law, Education, Applied Science, Nursing, Business, and Basic Studies); it enrolls over 8,000 students, and is the second largest of the seven campuses making up the University of Maine system; it offers five associate and thirty-eight baccalaureate degree programs, as well as graduate and professional degrees in law, nursing, business, computer sci­ ence, education, engineering, and public policy and management. But the University has many unique features, too. It is both large and small. With 1,100 students resident on the Gorham campus, the University has the characteristics of a rural, New England college; faculty close to hand and facilities set in attractive pastoral sur­ roundings. At the same time, located in Portland, the state's largest city and the center of financial, business, and cultural activities, the Univer­ sity makes available resources, opportunities, and experiences usually found only in much larger institutions. In addition to its two campuses, four off-campus learning centers serve students throughout southern Maine. All of these sites have been linked via computer and an interac­ tive, color, instructional television system. The student body of the University is the most diverse in the state of Maine.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM TO: Tom Miragliuolo, Senior Planner, Municipal Planning Assistance CC: Tom Poirier, Director of Community Development, Town of Gorham Carol Eyerman, AICP, Town Planner From: Ben Smith, AICP, North Star Planning RE: Gorham Comprehensive Plan Amendments, South Gorham Future Land Use Date: March 11, 2021 _____________________________________________________________________________________ On behalf of the Town, I am pleased to submit the attached mapping and narrative amendments to the Town of Gorham Comprehensive Plan Update, 2016. Gorham has undertaken a process to update portions of its 2016 Plan relative to the South Gorham Crossroads growth area. Following a public hearing at the Town Council meeting on March 2, the Town Council approved the changes described here and attached to the memo: Map changes to the boundary between the South Gorham Crossroads area, a Mixed Use Growth Area, and the Village Expansion area, a Residential Growth Area, and Text changes in the narrative description of the South Gorham Crossroads area to: o Clarify and provide more detail in the vision for the non-residential component of mixed-use developments, and to o Emphasize the importance of the Stroudwater River as a natural resource within the growth area. This process began last summer after the committee drafting ordinance language for the South Gorham Crossroads area based on the 2016 Update encountered questions from property owners in the area about residential densities envisioned in the plan and the plan’s call for new non-residential uses to be part of mixed use project as opposed to stand alone uses. The Town Council charged an ad hoc Comprehensive Plan Amendment Committee to review all mapping and narrative associated with the South Gorham Crossroads and South Gorham Commercial areas.
