Very laid back school, but at the same time pretty serious academics. Weekends can be a little uneventful if you don't party, but if you're creative you can find stuff to do.

There isn't very much to complain about here at UMaine. The campus is big enough to have plenty to see, but small enough to not have to walk a half hour to get to classes. The foods pretty good too.

I love the kids here, everyone is nice and easy to get along with. this is just part of the college experience however, the way the administration of the school is run plays a big role too. The administration here is sometimes reasonable, other times not. they also do go off of here-say when in trouble
