Morgan State University originated in 1867 as
the Centenary Biblical Institute under the auspic-
es of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1890,
the Institute was renamed Morgan College in
honor of Dr. Lyttleton Morgan, whose funding
enabled the school to offer academic work at the
college level. The College remained under church
jurisdiction until purchased by the State in 1939.

In 1975, Morgan State College was granted uni-
versity status (Chapter 550, Acts of 1975). A pub-
lic university, Morgan now includes the Schools
of Business and Management, Education and Ur-
ban Studies, Engineering, Graduate Studies, and a
College of Arts and Sciences.

The University offers a comprehensive under-
graduate program built upon basic degree offer-
ings in the liberal arts. Baccalaureate degrees are
offered in many disciplines, including pre-profes-
sional programs. The University's School of Grad-
uate Studies provides graduate education in a va-
riety of professions. It first offered advanced
degrees in education in 1964. Since then, the
scope of the graduate studies program has broad-
ened considerably to include a wide range of de-
gree options in the arts and sciences as well as in
professional fields.

Encompassing thirty departments, the Universi-
ty offers forty-four baccalaureate and twenty-eight
master's degree programs, and one doctoral pro-
gram (in Urban Educational Leadership). All aca-
demic programs are approved by the faculty,

which consists of 54 full professors, 56 associate
professors, 66 assistant professors, and 31 instruc-
tors. During the fall of the 1986-87 academic
year, 3,725 students were enrolled at Morgan. Of
these, 2,776 were full-time students and 949 were
part-time students.

The University is governed by an independent
Board of Regents consisting of thirteen members.
Twelve members are appointed to six-year terms
by the Governor. The student member serves a
one-year term (Code Education Article, sees.
13-201 through 13-204).

The Northeast Maryland Waste Disposal Au-
thority was established as a public corporation in
1980 (Chapter 871, Acts of 1980). The Authority
is a coordinating agency and a financing vehicle.

Maryland, other public entities, and the private
sector of the economy in providing adequate
waste disposal facilities. The Authority also helps
them provide facilities for the generation of steam,
electricity, or other forms of energy from fuels
that are derived from or are otherwise related to
waste disposal. Participating jurisdictions are
Anne Arundel County, Baltimore City, Baltimore
County, and Harford County.

The Authority consists of four members. From
each participating jurisdiction one member is ap-

The Authority has published several informa-
tional brochures and issues a monthly newsletter.
