Show us why the public should always call a land surveyor

Where are you surveying?

I want to give everyone on LSU an update to my last blog post about helping to keep the University of Maine Surveying Engineering Technology Program funded.

In that blog post I told you that the University of Maine (UMaine) had asked that each of its departments cut their budgets, which could have been catastrophic to the UMaine Survey Engineering Technology (SVT) Program.

I'm happy to report that UMaine has decided not to cut the SVT Program after all. In fact, UMaine has asked that the SVT Program increase out of state enrollment in recognition that this program, in addition to being valuable to the land surveying community and industry, is a valuable revenue source for UMaine.

I want to thank all of you who took the time to write to the President of UMaine asking him to reconsider his requirement that the SVT Program's budget be cut.

Your activism worked!
