Campus leaders from the college in nursing, marine sciences, economics and more highlighted the science and student experiences that inspire their work. The showcase aimed to better acquaint UMaine leaders and stakeholders with the people and programs behind the familiar, albeit nebulous, NSFA acronym. The current name of the college was established in 1996. In the years that followed, the organization continuously changed in response to research trends, student interests and Maine’s needs. Diane Rowland, who assumed leadership as dean of the college and director of the Maine Agricultural and Forest Experiment Station on Aug. 1, organized the event to help people appreciate the current work and potential of the college. “What NSFA contains is essentially the combination of disciplines scientific groups, stakeholders and legislators are calling for to respond to emerging and long-standing local and global challenges,” Rowland said. “Through NSFA, UMaine has something that I don’t know that any other U.S. institution has in one single college.” The live webinar featured five-minute snapshots of each program, including the hands-on experiences that prepare students for careers and the questions that drive researchers everywhere from Aroostook County to Antarctica in search of answers.
