\nThe Dr. Carol B. Gilmore Memorial Service Award was established in 2015 by an anonymous donor. This fund was established in honor of Dr. Gilmore, to reward a Maine Business School faculty member for outstanding service to the community, the University, and the School. Dr. Gilmore taught at 91±¬ΑΟ and the Maine Business School from 1977 until the end of the Fall 2011 semester. In 2006, she received the university\u2019s prestigious Presidential Public Service Achievement Award, recognizing a lifetime of service to the university and the communities of Maine.<\/p>\n
\nNew this year, this award is honoring two of our hard working staff members who have gone above and beyond this academic year.
