The Maine Peace Action Committee, consisting of University of Maine students, faculty and community members, is one of the oldest university peace and justice organizations in the United States. MPAC is concerned with issues of violence, war, inequality and injustice and with educating and acting to bring about a more democratic, equitable, nonviolent, peaceful, just, and sustainable Maine, nation and world.

MPAC attempts to challenge injustices through creative nonviolent resistance and to provide constructive positive alternatives necessary for a peace, just and sustainable future. This often includes organizing student, UMaine and local community service projects which confront dominant, hierarchial, power-defined authority by building alternative individual and community empowerment. A unique feature of MPAC at UMaine has been its commitment to a larger theoretical framework for understanding specific issues and struggles focusing on violence, injustice, domination, corporatism, imperialism, racism, sexism, environmental destruction, alienation, and dehumanizing education. Such a broader and deeper understanding allows us to realize how these issues and struggles are interconnected, so that we can support each other and unite for urgently needed change.

On December 14, 1906, eleven men, representing eight of the fraternities, met to form an organization whose purpose would be to recognize dedicated service to the University of Maine, to promote campus spirit, to keep an eye on the fraternities, and to educate new students about our alma mater. This upstanding on-campus brotherhood would be known as the Senior Skull Society.

In pursuit of their founding purpose, in 1911 the Senior Skulls created the Sophomore Owls Honor Society, whose charge became to orient the freshmen. In 1913 the Skulls called a meeting of representatives from all campus fraternities to form the nation’s first viable Interfraternity Council. At that time, approval of all student groups was at the discretion of the Senior Skulls, and our organization began laying the foundation for a vibrant campus culture centered on student engagement that we celebrate today.

The Senior Skull Society continued uninterrupted until World War II, when it ceased to exist for three years. It was revived in the fall of 1947, and to this day remains the oldest and highest inclusive honor society at the University of Maine. The achievements of Skulls’ past and present inspire the next generation of leaders.

Although the purpose and duties of the Senior Skulls have continuously adapted for over a century to fit the times and better serve the institution, today's Skulls remain recognized as tomorrow’s leaders and a trusted liaison for the students, the administration and the Black Bear community.

The Skulls are pledged to uphold and promote the ideals of Friendship, Leadership, Obligation, Academics and Dignity, as well as the history and traditions of the University. Skulls actively collaborate with the Alumni Association and the Office of the President to support special events both on and off campus. And, the organization manages the University of Maine Traditions Project, designed to increase awareness of our alma mater’s rich legacy and treasured traditions. These efforts, among others, shape the current work of the Senior Skulls to steward a more rewarding and connected University of Maine experience for all.

The Society of Physics Students (SPS) is both a local University club and a National academic organization. Those who attend our weekly meetings do not have to join SPS national, although they are encouraged to do so if they desire. We hold weekly meetings over zoom. We also have various fundraising events to maintain our physics lounge in Bennett hall, and are responsible for planning a number of major events for the Physics department. Two of our major actions as an academic society on campus includes physics outreach (doing physics demos for younger students at schools and at the yearly Engineering Expo) and running the pre-exam review sessions for Physics 121 and 122. First and foremost however, the purpose of SPS at the University of Maine is to foster a welcoming community of Physics (and non-Physics) students through a shared love and appreciation for the Physical Sciences.

The University of Maine's Society of Women Engineers (SWE) chapter is a professional organization geared towards creating a community for women in STEM on campus and providing professional development opportunities. In addition, we are also involved in outreach in the community and across the state of Maine with the goal of encouraging girls and young women to engage in STEM and pursue STEM careers. We welcome people from all STEM majors (not just engineering and engineering technology), as well as both undergraduate and graduate students!

Membership Benefits
A SWE collegiate membership is an awesome way to prepare for a successful engineering career. As a member, you are part of a community of peers with access to exceptional tools, scholarships, training, leadership development, and networking.

Getting an engineering degree can be isolating, but with a SWE membership you are not alone. Joining SWE gives you an automatic network of colleagues with similar experiences, challenges, and goals. Many current SWE members credit joining SWE in college as the reason they stuck with—and succeeded in—their STEM programs. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet and network with practicing engineers who can provide advice, guidance, and real world career connections.

SWE hosts the world’s largest career fair for women and allies in engineering; as a SWE member, you have unlimited career fair access. Not able to make it to Annual Conference? We also host smaller job fairs through our WE Local events around the globe. Or, post your resume and search the over 10K open positions on SWE’s Online Career Center. SWE partners with leading organizations committed to working towards gender parity in engineering and technology

SWE is proud to be the largest resource of scholarships for women in engineering. SWE scholarships financially support women pursuing STEM degrees and are open to all candidates who identify as women.

We know how tough it can be to build up an impressive resume during college—one that will be noticed by potential employers and hopefully land you that promising internship or dream job. SWE has plenty of opportunities that will add standout experience to your resume. Hone your capacity as a leader by getting involved with your local SWE Section or Affiliate, serving on a SWE Committee, or volunteering for a K-12 Outreach event.
