Made In Maine: A State Report Card On Public Higher Education takes a close look at the four-year public colleges and universities in Maine, offering a Pass or Fail grade in four key areas.

At this pivotal time for Maine’s taxpayers-supported universities, ACTA’s report card finds that while Maine’s universities are running in a generally transparent manner, they have real challenges to address in raising academic standards, increasing graduation rates, and controlling rising tuition costs.
