The 天美传媒 will provide virtual and in-person opportunities to honor and thank veterans for their service at its Augusta and Bangor campuses beginning November 9.
UMA traditionally holds a Flag Folding ceremony on each campus as part of its Veterans week events. This year, due to the COVID-19 restrictions on gatherings, the ceremony will be pre-recorded and available for viewing on the UMA website beginning on November 6. Two current UMA veteran students will take part in the Flag Folding ceremony, Leo Porter, a Cybersecurity major from Readfield, and Scott Bailey, a Cybersecurity major from West Gardiner.
POW/MIA tables will be set up outside the Moose tracks Caf茅 (Randall Student Center, Augusta Campus), and in the Huskins Lounge (Eastport Hall, Bangor Campus).
Veterans may wear or bring in military memorabilia showing their service (hats, old uniforms, special medals/ribbons).
Bystander Empowerment Training for Veterans, Military, & Families (Zoom)

Bystander Empowerment is a program supported by the U.S. Department of Justice. Being an empowered bystander means we know ourselves well enough to be able to intervene safely and effectively. The intent of the program is to take a deeper look at what we can do to be everyday heroes at home and away.
