USM Student Life Departments

Getting involved on and off campus, inside and outside the classroom can be an excellent way to develop and improve your personal and professional skills. Research shows that students who are involved beyond just going to class are more likely to graduate and will be more marketable when it comes time to get a job.

There is always something happening at USM. Programs include comedians, coffee houses, local bands, speakers, First Friday Art Walks in Portland, & residence hall programs as well as watching USM athletic contests, participating in recreational opportunities on campus and much more. Your USM experience is what you make of it and the Student Involvement & Activities Center in Portland and the Campus Involvment & Activities in Gorham is here to help you FIND YOUR FIT at USM!
