dc.description.abstractUniversity Merger Speculation: There's ongoing speculation about a possible merger between Morgan State University and the University of Maryland. University representatives, including Mrs. Vera P. Hall, emphasize that this is unlikely as long as Morgan State remains strong and productive. Budget Allocations: Morgan State University has been allocated $70.9 million for the next fiscal year, with $4.7 million earmarked for dormitory repairs. However, this amount falls short of the $15 million requested, indicating ongoing financial challenges in maintaining university facilities. Art Department Struggles: The Art Department faces significant issues, including lack of supplies, poor classroom conditions, and insufficient funding. This has discouraged students and led to a decline in enrollment. Efforts are underway to secure funds and improve the situation. Student Government Elections: The paper highlights the upcoming elections for the Student Government Association (SGA) and profiles candidates, emphasizing their desire to improve student life and promote Afro-American culture. Baltimore Care Connection: An alumni-led initiative is raising awareness about AIDS and drug abuse in the Baltimore community through performances and educational programs. Editorial Content: The editor discusses student apathy and the lack of competitiveness at Morgan State, urging students to become more involved and take leadership roles. Sports and Obituaries: Coverage includes a tribute to Edward P. Hurt, a long-time coach at Morgan State, highlighting his legacy in athletics. The newspaper also reports on student achievements and honors within various departments, such as psychology.
