USM Chancellor Robert L. Caret Statement on May 20, 2017 Tragedy at the University of Maryland, College Park

"On behalf of the greater University System of Maryland community, I would like to convey our profound sorrow regarding this tragic and senseless loss of life. We mourn for the student, his family and closest friends, and everyone at Bowie State University. 

"On USM campuses from Bowie State to the University of Maryland, College Park and throughout the system, our students and families this week are celebrating graduations and the growth all students make en route to such a milestone. During this time, and well beyond, we will seek the most fitting ways to convey our sadness regarding Saturday's tragedy and to heal as a community."
