Abstract/ Summary

Across Maine’s public universities, more than 2,900 faculty, professional staff, and student workers are fully or partially funded through federal sources, and many of us regularly interface with federal employees and services.

As you may be hearing, there is an increasing possibility that the federal government will be temporarily unable to operate due to a lapse in appropriations when the current federal fiscal year ends on Tuesday, Sept. 30. We expect you may have questions about how this might impact you and our public universities and want to share with you what we currently know and what we are doing to prepare for a potential federal shutdown.
