USM Plans To Move Lewiston Campus

The University of Southern Maine has announced their intention to move its Lewiston campus to a more central location for downtown students. The new location has not been determined yet. But USM President Glenn Cummings said,

“We believe strongly that relocating our campus to downtown Lewiston will provide meaningful new opportunities and possibilities that will better meet the needs of the Lewiston-Auburn region and its people,” according to CentralMaine.com

They estimate that this could be a 3 year process to getthe board of trustees approval, the sale of its current building and securing and outfitting new space in downtown Lewiston.
