Morgan’s 12th President Dr. David Wilson

Friends, I am pleased to present the Spring 2017 edition of Bear Facts, your resource for essential information about Morgan State University.

Our great institution is celePURPOSE • PROGRESS • PROMISE brating the 150th anniversary of its founding this year, and there is indeed much to celebrate during our Sesquicentennial. e $32 million in federal and state grants and contracts MSU received last fiscal year, including $1.2 million 1867–2017 from the National Science Foundation, reflect the great progress we are making toward our goal of enhancing Morgan’s status as a Carnegie-classified Doctoral Research University. Campus improvements to support our growing research and educational capabilities include such highlights as construction of a new, $79-million Jenkins Behavioral and

Social Sciences Center, soon to join the $72-million Earl G. Graves School of Business and Management facility opened only 20 months ago on the University’s new West Campus.

Our alumni continue to do vital work across the nation and around the globe. And locally, a Morgan graduate, elected last November, now leads Baltimore City as mayor: the first MSU alumnus to serve in that position.

Our student enrollment and retention numbers are on an impressive upward trend, signaling continued success in our mission to provide access to the opportunities of higher education for a diverse population.

Morgan’s success in producing citizens with broad minds and top-notch technical and scientific skills is more important than ever, and with your continued support, we will continue to meet the burgeoning challenges of the 21st century by growing the future and leading the world.

Dr. David Wilson, President 1

Capital Projects WEST CAMPUS DEVELOPMENT – NORTHWOOD Earl G. Graves School of Business and Management The school’s new home, which opened in August 2015, is a $72million, six-story, modern complex featuring a real-time capital markets stock trading center, a Center for Innovation, computer labs, classrooms, seminar rooms and a 299-person-capacity auditorium that includes an 80-person lecture hall.

Jenkins Behavioral and Social Sciences Center Ground breaking for the center took place on April 30, 2015, on the West Campus.

Construction is well under way on the new $79-million facility, which is projected to open in 2017, replacing the current Jenkins building, which is scheduled for demolition.

COMPLETED PROJECTS Lillie Carroll Jackson Civil Rights Museum The building in the Bolton Hill area of Baltimore City has been renovated and serves as an extension of the University’s Museum Program. The museum, which opened in June 2016, houses drawings, paintings, letters, photographs and other historical documents related to the Civil Rights Movement.

STEM Infrastructure Upgrades Growing the future at Morgan means, among other things, preparing our students for the STEM fields that dominate the economy of the 21st century. Toward this end, the University has completed major information technology infrastructure upgrades, including implementation of an ACUTA award-winning Next Generation Network, installation of wireless Internet connectivity campus-wide, and renovation and reequipping of the University’s computer and natural science laboratories.

Tyler Hall

New Student Services Center Construction of the $81-million, state-of-the-art facility, Calvin and Tina Tyler Hall, is scheduled to begin in 2017, and its opening is slated for 2020. The 139,000-square-foot building will house nearly 20 student support departments, including Student Services, Records and Registration, Financial Aid, the new Bursar’s Office, a recruitment room and “generalist desks” to limit students’ time spent in different departments. Tyler Hall will also include numerous special features, such as a green roof on the third level.

The Tyler Hall Student Services Center will be located at the corner of Hillen Road and E. Cold Spring Lane, on the site that was formerly occupied by Soper Library.

FIVE-YEAR PROJECTS In the out-years, a new Health and Human Services Facility is planned for the site of Turner’s Armory. The proposed facility will house the School of Community Health and Policy, including Nursing; Public Health Nutrition; the School of Social Work; Medical Technology; Family and Consumer Sciences; and the Counseling and Health Centers. The first phase of this project, which includes the demolition of Turner’s Armory, will commence in 2018. Plans are also under way for a new Science Building at the site of the existing Washington Service Center.
