Jan. 28 Transition to Virtual Operations, Campus Closed

Bowie State University will be transitioning to virtual operations for all classes and office operations on Wednesday, January 28, 2026. The campus will be closed to all non-essential personnel, and all campus activities are canceled. All buildings except residence halls will be closed. Essential personnel should report on time. This is due to the extended time required to clear the extensive snow and ice accumulation on campus. University crews are making every effort to resume campus operations, as a safe return to in-person learning and work remains our top priority. Only essential personnel and residential students are permitted access to the campus on Jan. 28. For more information, please visit BowieState.edu/weather.

Martin Luther King, Jr. Center Ribbon-Cutting

On August 27, 2024, Bowie State University President Aminta H. Breaux unveiled the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center, which honored the power of voice and free expression to inspire generations of students.

The legacy of one of the most prominent speakers of change is fused into notable features of this new building. The specialized learning environments promote innovation across studies in history, language, literature, communications and media studies.  
Prominent features include a 1,500-seat auditorium and special spaces for military science, honoring the legacy of our fallen Bulldog 1st Lt. Richard W. Collins III and those who serve to protect our freedom.
