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.

Bus Shelter

Students can now charge electronic devices while waiting for the MTA bus. The start of the 2015-16 Academic year features a new and improved sight around Henry Circle between MLK and Center for Business which help boost the University’s sustainability efforts. BSU purchased a new, modern bus shelter and had it retrofitted to include: six 5v USB ports, a full power outlet, and LED lighting which is activated during non-daylight. This is fully powered by 100% solar energy by panels located at the top of the shelter. The panel is connected to a battery which provides full charging energy to the outlets. This shelter is unique to almost any college in the nation.
