tion. The Southern Regional Education Board is
active in approximately twenty-five academic
fields. It administers the regional education con-
tracts through which states lacking schools in
certain fields are able to secure training for their
students at institutions operated either by other
states or by private corporations. The Board also
studies needs and resources in various academic
fields and joins with universities in Memoranda
of Agreement to plan the development of specific
programs on a regional basis. The University of
Maryland carries on the administrative work of
the Board in Maryland (Code Education Article,
Title 25). The Maryland representatives on the
Board are the Governor and four other persons
appointed by him.
