Maryland lawmakers push task force for college system overhaul
Senate President Thomas W. Mike Miller and House Speaker Casper Taylor led a move to form a task force to study Maryland higher education. Gov. Glendening supports the study. They say the 10 year reorganization under the University of Maryland system failed to reach top national levels, noting St. Marys College and Morgan State University perform better with direct funding and separate governance.
