ORONO - The Maine State Society of Washington, D.C., has given retired University of Maine professor Harold Borns its 2007 "Big ‘M’ Award," recognizing Borns’ "accomplishments and achievements in [his] profession, [and] for service to Maine and its citizens."

Borns retired from the UMaine faculty in 2005 after 50 years as a UMaine professor. He received the award Dec. 8. in Washington. The 113-year-old Maine State Society has about 1,000 members. It serves to connect Maine people who live and work in the Washington, D.C., area. The organization has presented the "Big ‘M’ Award" 43 times since the award was created in the 1960s.
