Speaker of the House

Annapolis MD 21401

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 419.

This bill provides that the presidents of the University System of Maryland (USM)
constituent institutions may establish campus-based foundations. Each foundation
need not be approved by the USM Board of Regents but shall operate subject to
policies adopted by the board in consultation with the presidents of the institutions.

Senate Bill 296, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May
27, 1999, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign
House Bill 419.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening
Governor
