I wonder if there is a competitive advantage to be had there? UMaine is a pretty good system. When I retired, I taught math at UMF for a little while, so I got to see the system from the inside.
UMF has one of the best teaching programs in the country. They even have a CS path that is judged well.
Maybe recruiting at the small State universities is a potential edge?
