Maine Colleges (continued from top)
When it comes to colleges and universities, Maine is primarily known for its small liberal arts schools tucked away in the state's rolling green hills. Some of these schools are considered the best schools of their kind and provide students with a well-rounded liberal arts education that prepares students for a rich and satisfying professional life.
Other Maine Colleges
But these schools are generally expensive. Thankfully, Maine has cheaper state colleges and universities with thousands of students. Major towns, like Bangor or Portland, have community colleges. These schools can prepare you for a specific vocation or give you the preliminary coursework to enter four-year institutions.
Maine Economy
Among several claims to fame, Maine produces 98% of the nation's low-bush blueberries. Farm income is also derived from apples, potatoes, dairy products, and vegetables, with poultry and eggs the largest selling items.
The state is one of the world's largest pulp-paper producers. With almost 89% of its area forested, Maine turns out wood products from boats to toothpicks. Maine also leads the world in the production of the familiar flat tins of sardines, producing more than 75 million of them annually. In 2001, Maine lobstermen landed nearly 48 million pounds of lobster, compared with an estimated 53 million pounds in 2000.
Maine Attractions
A world-renowned scenic seacoast, beaches, lakes, mountains, and resorts make Maine a popular vacationland (and site of the Bush families vacation home). There are more than 2,500 lakes and 5,000 streams, plus 26 state parks to attract hunters, fishermen, skiers, and campers.
Beyond the general wilderness, major points of interest are Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, Allagash National Wilderness Waterway, the Wadsworth-Longfellow House in Portland, Roosevelt Campobello International Park, and the St. Croix Island National Monument.
