 NORTHEASTERN MAINE VOCATIONAL INSTMUTE
1964 - 1965

The Northeastern Maine Vocational Institurte is con-

d,ucted under the authority of the Maine State Board of
Education for y,oung men and women who desire training in
the vocational trades occupations, practical nursing and busi-
ness skills. The courses are designed to give the students a.
basic and cornprehensive training in the theoretical and practi-
cal skills of their chosen occup,ation.
This school was instituted by an act of the 100th legisla-
ture and came into being when the former Presque Isle Air
Base was deactivated and eighty acres of land and thirty six
usable buildilngs of varying types were deeded to the State of
Maine for educational purposes.,The camp,us includes a fully
equipped chapel, dormitories, a large recreation area, kitchen
and dining facilities, a newly renovated practical'baseball
nunsing
schoo'I and administration building, softball and
di,amondis, three large shop buildings, a business educatio'n
center, classroom buildings and several smaller buildings for
maintenance use, storage and srnall shop space.
The basic PHILOSOPHY OF TIIE NORTHEASTERN
MAINE VOCATIONAL INSTITUTE is to select people who
have the ability to pro{it fi.om practical training in the basic
skills and knowledge needed to snter and advance them-
selves in their ch:sen vocation.
To provide modern'training geared to the future as well as
--- present
as L- -- demands-of-jndustry and the trade.
ry67
In the fall of t6€#the following courses will be offered:
Aut'omotive Mechanics Building Construction
Practical Nursing Electricity
Sheet Metal Working
Our students .'rill study relate d technical subjects desigaed
to give the graduate a broader understanding of- his jhos.en
fieid. Courses in rnathematics, related science, basic English
and business management are included to broaden the back-
ground of the graduate in his vocation. Ttre demand for people
irained in voc6tional-technical skills on the part of trade and
industry makes the type of education offered by- thg N9+4-
eastern'Maine Vocati'fral Institute very valuable to high
school gradluates. With the increased emphasis on automation
and meclhanizati'on, the ies for unskilled
labor, and the develoPments in which have created
tfrou,s'anai of jobs in ill kinds 'of -gndeay-or which - require
'trained workers, the Northeastern Maine Vocational Institute
should help to fill these needs.

should acquaint the Principal with their problems. The In,sti-
tute reserves the right to exclude or dismiss any student at
any tjme of his attendance, conduct, or progress in studies is

New students are considered, as serving a pr,c,bationary period
until they establish the fact that they can fit satisfactorily
into the school program and organization.
STUDENT AID
While part-time work may be available, prospective stu-
dlents are urged to c,onsider their finances carefully before en'

The Institute may enr,ploy a limited number of studen'ts
for a variety of occupations in the operation and maintenance
of its physical plant. Applicants needing the benefit of ipart-
time employment may make applieation for such at the
Principal's office. References from these applications will aiso
be ma-cle to private firms and individuals in ttre Presque IsIe
area who contact the school for student help. The Maine State
Employment Office in Presque Isle further assists in the pro-
m,oition of student aid by con'tacting business and industrial
organizations in the area to acquaint them with the availabili-
ty of student workers.
RECREATION PR,OGRAM
The former officers club will be used as a canteen and re-
creation area. It is a beautifully finished and attractive are'a

classes and Laboratory work will be scheduled for three cloci<
hours each day; (2). related subjects are also required of all
students in all courses. Outside study is an additional require-
ment. The principies of the related subjects will be applied as
much as practicable to problems of the major course, courses
of studly differing somewhat'to meet the specialized needs of
each organization. Courses and course content rnay be changed
without notice. A semesrter consists of (20) twenty weeks, and
