MARYLAND MANUAL 69 The Board of Regents, within the limits prescribed by law, may issue revenue bonds to finance the building of dormitories and other student housing facilities. Student union buildings at College Park and Baltimore have been constructed as well as a combination Physical Education and Auditorium building at College Park. The Regents issue such bonds directly with the payments of principal and interest made from revenues realized from the use of the buildings (Code 1957, 1966 Supp., Art. 77, sees. 249-59J). There are two principal campuses of the University located at Col- lege Park and at Baltimore. At College Park, instruction is offered for both undergraduate and graduate students in the Colleges of Agriculture, Arts and Sciences, Business and Public Administration, Education, Engineering, Home Economics and Physical Education, Recreation, and Health. Graduate level instruction will be provided by the School of Library Science in the fall of 1965. Also located at College Park are the Graduate School, the Summer School, and the offices of University College. The latter college operates the evening school program at College Park and a self-supporting college level program at off-campus centers throughout the State of Maryland. It also maintains overseas centers for United States personnel in the European, North Atlantic and Far East military operations. The second principal campus of the University is located in Balti- more, at Lombard and Greene Streets. This campus accommodates the University's professional schools of Dentistry, Law, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy and Social Work. The University Hospital is located here and is affiliated through professional programs with each of the six schools. Evening courses are also offered in Baltimore by University College.
