The Governor, with the consent of the Senate, appoints nine Regents
for a term of nine years from the first Monday in June.

The first appointments were made in 1916 for terms of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 7, 8 and 9 years, and as these terms expire a successor is appointed
for a full term of nine years. (Ch. 372, 1916.)

miles to the north on. the same road. Access to these towns and to

and Law are located in Baltimore at the corner of Lombard and Greene
Streets.

The government of the University is vested by law in a Board of
Regents, consisting of nine members appointed by the Governor each for
a term of nine years. The administration of the University is vested in
