Towson University is now Administrative Headquarters for the Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities (CUMU). The Coalition is comprised of more than 80 universities from across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. For a comprehensive listing of member universities, please visit {http://cumu.uc.iupui.edu/directory.asp}
CUMU brings together universities with a shared mission of striving for national excellence while contributing to the economic development, social health and cultural vitality of the urban or metropolitan centers they serve. The Coalition began, in part, because a number of presidents/administrators of urban and metropolitan universities recognized that they faced many common challenges and shared similar frustrations. In addition to being the current Vice President of CUMU, President Caret was one of the founding members of CUMU.
The new CUMU headquarters office is located directly outside room 301, Administration Building. For more information, e-mail {cumu@towson.edu}, or call x4-3700.
