The Commission originally was created in 1966
as the Maryland Educational-Cultural Television
Commission (Chapter 202, Acts of 1966). In 1967
its functions expanded and it was renamed the
Maryland Educational-Cultural Broadcasting
Commission (Chapter 645, Acts of 1967). In 1969
it became the Maryland Public Broadcasting Com-
mission (Chapter 405, Acts of 1969). The Commis-

sion was created to develop, operate, and maintain
a system of State, regional, and local facilities to
provide educational and cultural television and
radio programming throughout Maryland.

The Commission consists of eleven members
appointed by the Governor for five-year terms.
One member must be the State Superintendent of
Schools. Two other members are designated by the
State Board of Education. Members are chosen
because of their interest in public education, librar-
ies, art, music, drama, higher education, the televi-
sion and radio industries, or other categories to be
chosen by the Governor to bring special compe-
tence to the Commission's membership. The Gov-
ernor designates the chairperson and the vice-
chairperson (Code Education Article, sec. 24—201
through 24-206).
