As the first snow flew outside, students on both of UNE’s coastal Maine campuses gathered inside to honor those who served in war in anticipation of Veterans Day.
On the University’s Portland Campus for the Health Sciences, students gathered in Wing Student Lounge to write the names of veterans in their lives on red, white, and blue badges and pin them for display. Flags were later planted on the campus’ Alumni Green in honor of each name written. In Biddeford, a ceremony held in the Danielle N. Ripich Commons brought together dozens to honor the lives and contributions of veterans both near and far.
