UMaine Graduation Gifts

May is a bittersweet time of year in Orono.

As classes wrap up at the University of Maine, the people who live in town breathe a little sigh of relief because the morning commute is faster and it's easier to get a table at your favorite restaurant.

But frankly, we're sad to see our students go. Especially the ones who are leaving for good, to pursue whatever the next step in their lives is.

For our soon-to-be University of Maine grads, we have a selection of unique gifts that celebrate their time at UMaine, their achievements and their ties to this lovely little place we call home.

For the fashionista (or the sailor), we suggest our exclusive Maine M Sea Bag. It's a stylish way to celebrate your alma mater.


For the party animal or the traditionalist, we suggest the "Drink, Drink, Drink! Fill Your Stein in Orono, Maine" T-shirt. The unofficial refrain to the "Maine Stein Song" is printed on American Apparel tees for men and women, and it's just the thing to celebrate happy times.








We're proud to carry Beer ME and Love ME hoodies printed in UMaine blue with the Maine M on the cuff. Adorable, and again, a perfect reminder of college fun.

Looking for something elegant and understated? We suggest our custom pendants, cufflinks and bracelets from CHART Metalworks. They feature an 1887 map of Orono covered in resin and set in sterling or bronze. They're wearable nostalgia, and we love them.

To our graduates, congratulations. Go far. But be sure to come back to visit — after all, it's the college of our hearts always.
