University System of Maryland Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

The University System of Maryland (USM) is a public corporation and charter school system comprising 13 Maryland institutions of higher education. In 1988, it was created from the merger of the five University of Maryland institutions and the six members of the State University and College System of Maryland under the name University of Maryland System. When USM was originally formed in 1988, Maryland’s other two state-funded (i.e., public) 4-year institutions (Baltimore’s Morgan State University and Southern Maryland’s St. Mary’s College of Maryland) opted out of the system and made separate funding arrangements with the state.
