The 65th Commencement Ceremony of the University of Maine at Machias was held on May 23, 1976, in the Health & Physical Education Building. This official program documents the ceremony proceedings, including musical selections by the Machias Bay Community Chorus, keynote remarks by Maine author and humorist John Gould, and the conferring of degrees by President Buswell. The program includes a complete list of graduates receiving Bachelor of Science, Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, and Business Technology diplomas, with honors distinctions noted. It also features a historical overview of academic regalia and a tribute to Dr. William L. Powers, the first principal of Washington State Normal School.
