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 was
changed to Morgan College in honor of Dr.
Lyttleton Morgan, whose gift of a large sum
of money enabled the school to offer aca-
demic work at the college level. The school
remained under church jurisdiction until the
State of Maryland purchased it in 1939.
By Chapter 550, Acts of 1975, Morgan
State was granted university status. A public
University, Morgan now includes the Schools
of Business and Management, Urban Stud-
ies and Human Development, Education,
Graduate Studies and a College of Arts and
Sciences.
The University is governed by a Board
of Trustees consisting of twelve members
appointed by the Governor for six year
terms. Six of those first appointed were
selected from the former Board of Trustees
of Morgan State College. By Chapter 538,
Acts of 1976, a student in good standing
at the University appointed for a one year
term, became a member of the Board.
The University is fully accredited by the
Middle States Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools and the State Depart-
ment of Education. It is also approved by
the Regents of the University of the State
of New York, the American Chemical So-
ciety, the American Medical Association,
and the Maryland State Board of Public
Accountancy.
The University, which consists of twenty-
two departments, offers twenty-eight bac-
calaureate and twenty Master's degree pro-
grams. The faculty, which approves of all
academic programs, consists of 65 full pro-
fessors, 70 associate professors, 81 assistant
professors, 60 instructors, and 7 assistant
instructors. A staff of 467 persons also serv-
ices the University.
During the academic year 1975-76, 6,361
students were enrolled at Morgan. Four |
thousand seven (4,007) were full-time stu-
dents and 1,854 were part-time students
(Code 1957, 1975 Repl. Vol., 1975 Supp.,
Art. 77A, sees. 71-82).
