MARYLAND MANUAL 76 William W. Proctor, A.M., Registrar Satish B. Parekh, Ph.D., Business Manager Alvin B. Watson B.S., Chief Finance Officer Stewart A. Brooks, M.Ed., Assistant to the President Hillen Road at Cold Spring Lane, Baltimore 21212 Telephone: 323-2270 Morgan State College was organized in 1867, under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church, as the Centenary Biblical Institute. In 1890, the school's name changed to Morgan College in honor of Dr. Lyttleton Morgan, whose gift of a large sum of money enabled the school to offer academic work at the college level. The school remained under church jurisdiction until the State of Maryland pur- chased it by Chapter 331, Acts of 1939. The College is fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and by the Department of Education of Maryland. It is also approved by the Regents of the University of the State of New York, the American Medical Association, and by the American Chemical Society. The undergraduate curriculum at Morgan State College is organized into three divisions: Humanities, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences. Within these divisions are included eighteen departments offering courses leading to the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science de- grees. Emphasis is placed upon the presentation of a standard four- year course in the liberal arts and teacher training, both elementary and secondary. Both day and evening courses are offered, and at the present time, students may complete all requirements for the major in Business Administration, Sociology, and History through study in the Evening College. A Summer session is conducted as a part of the regular work of the college, and includes in-service training for teachers in Maryland schools. The graduate program offers programs leading toward the follow- ing degrees: Masters of Arts (A.M.), offered in English, history and mathematics; Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.), beginning in September 1969; Master of Science (M.S.), offered in educational administration and supervision; elementary education; history-social science; science; and teacher preparation for urban schools. During the academic year 1968-69, Morgan had an enrollment in all divisions of 4,391, including 3,562 day students, 384 evening students, and 455 graduate school students. Morgan State College came under the jurisdiction of the Board of Trustees of the State Colleges on July 1, 1967 (Chapter 41, Acts of 1963).
