Dear Coppin Commmunity:

Although the students are still on winter break, Coppin State University has been making a significant impact on our campus and in our community. We received a grant from T. Rowe Price to develop a hub for non-profits. We also hosted a press conference where the Maryland Clean Energy Center announced Maryland Equitable Charging Infrastructure Partnership at Coppin State University. Coppin is a partnership university, and we are excited to have the EV chargers stationed on our campus. This partnership will help transform our community.
