Today, the Maine Maritime Academy community gathered during Regimental Morning Muster to honor and remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

As part of the Academy's annual September 11 Remembrance Ceremony, attendees heard reflections from two special guest speakers: Father Erin... Donlon, LT, USN, an MMA alumnus (MSE Class of 2017), Parochial Vicar at the Parish of the Resurrection of the Lord in Old Town, Maine, and an active Naval Chaplain Candidate; and Fire Chief Michael "Mike" Clark (Ret.), a fifth-generation firefighter and paramedic whose distinguished 37-year career has included service with the City of Bath, FEMA disaster response teams, Bath Iron Works, and the U.S. Coast Guard firefighting program at MMA.

We thank Father Donlon and Chief Clark for sharing their experiences and perspectives as we paused to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and resilience demonstrated on that day and in the years since.

A recording of the ceremony, including remarks from both speakers, is available on our livestreaming page. Link in bio.

The newest members of Mariner Nation got a taste of campus and community life Thursday afternoon at this year’s Community Involvement Fair.

Students explored the many opportunities available both at Maine Maritime Academy and throughout the Castine community. From student clubs and ...organizations to local churches and the Castine Fire & Rescue Department, there was something for everyone to discover.

And because checking out all those opportunities can work up an appetite, students also enjoyed delicious savory hand pies from Portable Pie Place.

The fair was a great opportunity for students to connect with campus and community organizations, learn about ways to get involved, and begin building relationships that will enhance their MMA experience.
