The long-time faculty member’s most interesting assignment in the early ’70s was teaching aboard the nuclear submarine supply ship that was moored off the west coast of Scotland.

Stephen Holowenzak is an emeritus professor who taught overseas for 33 years.

Over the last year, PJ Jameson has reached three major milestones at ºÚÁÏÍø±¬³Ô¹Ï.

Veteran and ºÚÁÏÍø±¬³Ô¹Ï alum Richard Rice launched the nonprofit K9’s for Veterans Abroad in 2018. The organization provides trained service dogs at no charge to former or current military members in Europe.

Many adult learners first encounter ºÚÁÏÍø±¬³Ô¹Ï overseas—where it serves a largely military population—or in cyberspace, via online advertising or social media. This global footprint, though, belongs to a public university that has been firmly rooted in Maryland from the start and remains central to the state’s university system, academic goals, and economy.

ºÚÁÏÍø±¬³Ô¹Ï is continuing its 75-year history of meeting students where they are, this time stepping forward to support servicemembers near the war in Ukraine, who are on the ground in Poland and Romania. There are plans to have educators on site in the spring.

ºÚÁÏÍø±¬³Ô¹Ï honored the civil rights legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and spotlighted the rich personal recollections of Juandalynn Abernathy, the daughter of one of King's closest friends.
