TIAA-CREF Distinguished Honors Graduate Lecture
As part of an ongoing collaboration between TIAA-CREF and The Honors College at The University of Maine, each spring since 2002 we have hosted a distinguished graduate of Honors for a several day visit. During this visit, the graduate typically meets with students and faculty involved in The Honors College as well as speaks with other groups of students who have some connection with the visitor's discipline or vocation. The public TIAA-CREF Distinguished Honors Graduate Lecture also serves as the keynote address for the University's Student Research and Creative Achievement Week.
We are very grateful to TIAA-CREF for supporting this initiative which allows us to connect our past with our present and our future.
