This figure represents an eight percent increase over the Fiscal Year 1999 goal. Revised institutional goals for the USM's seven-year fundraising campaign were approved. Two other institutions, Salisbury State University and Coppin State College, also will increase their goals, while five institutions will marginally decrease theirs. Revised policies on affiliated foundations were approved by the Board. The revisions are the result of the work of two special Regents' committees and also respond to a new state law allowing the USM's 13 institutions to establish their own foundations if they so choose, to be operated in accordance with Board of Regents policies.
Domestic violence is abusive, criminal behavior.
The Board of Regents is committed to curbing domestic violence among employees and students and to raising awareness of this issue within the University System of Maryland community.
