EXCELLENCE. ACHIEVEMENT. ASPIRATIONS.
Buchanan Alumni House was conceived as a "place to call home" for alumni and friends, a warm and welcoming building showcasing the University of Maine. Funded entirely with private gifts in a landmark capital campaign by the University of Maine Foundation and the University of Maine Alumni Association, Alumni House symbolizes the excellence of our state's flagship campus; the achievements of our outstanding alumni; and the aspirations of our exceptional students. It is the new front door to campus, and captures the enormous pride alumni and Maine residents feel for "dear old MAINE". Each year, more than 13,000 visitors attend more than 500 meetings at Alumni House. During one month alone we were host to Maine's Senators Olympia Snowe '69 and Susan Collins, Governor John Baldacci '86, former Secretary of Defense William Cohen '75H, and former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. Buchanan Alumni House's exceptional spaces have become the preferred location for meetings, presentations, workshops and other events.
