vetoed House Bill 1501 - Higher Education - Morgan State University and St. Mary's
College of Maryland - Authority.
This bill authorizes the Maryland Higher Education Commission to review and
comment on the operating and capital budgets of the Board of Regents of Morgan
State University only within the broad context of the State Plan for Higher
Education; prohibits the Commission from recommending against a specified budget
item except under specified circumstances; and exempts specified capital
improvements made by Morgan State University and St. Mary's College of Maryland
from the Capital Improvement Program.
Senate Bill 444, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 1501.
Very truly yours,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
