Eastern Maine was established in 1966 by act of the Maine Legislature, as Eastern Maine Vocational Technical Institute (EMVTI). In 1989, the name was changed to Eastern Maine Technical College (EMTC), and changed again in 2003 from "Technical" to "Community".[1] Located in the center of Bangor, Maine, its 72-acre campus is next to Interstate 95, a short distance from Eastern Maine Medical Center.[3]
