The state puts more resources per student into Coppin than any other institution in the university system, and it gets the least return. That's bad for the taxpayers, but it's worse for the students whose dreams of advancement go unfulfilled. Big changes are clearly needed.

  6. With study done, we wait for action

    Consultant studies are a two-way street. First, the study has to be worth something; second, the group for whom the study was performed has to be willing to act on it. Seems as if we got one out of two. A recent study to assess Washington County’s...
