The University of Maine celebrated the achievement of gaining R1 status through hosting an R1 Celebration in the Memorial Union. Giveaways with a custom R1 graphic mark were created for this celebration in collaboration with University Promotions. Those giveaways include: posters, mugs, stickers and T-shirts. The R1 graphic mark includes colors and messaging that showcase our status as a research-focused land, sea and space grant institution.
