In an April 27 letter to university employees, Chancellor James Page announced that the system is interested in pursuing a single accreditation for the entire system — if possible. “While supporting the same high standards, a single accreditation model could support initiatives such as the implementation of multi-campus degree programs or a unified budget process,” Page said in the letter. https://bangordailynews.com/2015/04/28/news/state/university-of-maine-system-officials-consider-push-for-single-accreditation/
