The Student population in Towson Maryland is growing at a rapid rate and Towson University needs to accommodate to satisfy everyones needs. To do this they are planning on expanding their campus to Harford County near Harford County Community College.
Towson students will soon be able to get a degree in majors such as education, business, criminal justice, science and technology without ever having to go to the Towson campus. A convenience like this should be helpful to those who live closer to Harford County and have trouble parking in Towson. Parking can be a problem during the school year so this may create less commuters to the Towson Campus therefore creating more parking.
There are many advantages When it comes to the Harford County expansion. Students that are in Harford County can easily do two years at the Community College and then transfer nicely to the Towson Harford County location, this will also cut the commute for about 2,000 students that live in Harford.
Harford County Community College (HCC) could share its many resources and maybe even build dorms that could be shared. Towson is trying its best to expand in many areas, including the arena. The President of Towson University, Robert L. Caret, is trying his best to make the school bigger and better for the students and the surrounding community.
Harford County takes the plan with open arms and thinks it's a "great opportunity." Expanding into the surrounding neighborhood is not an option for TU. So this plan is sufficient and will in the long run create more jobs in other counties.
