Princeton Review Profiles Three USM Schools in 2016 "Best Colleges" Book
Adelphi, Md. (Aug. 4, 2015) -- The Princeton Review has named three University
System of Maryland (USM) institutions among The
Best 380 Colleges for 2016 in its annual compilation that profiles leading U.S. colleges.
The
publication honored the University of Maryland, College Park (UMCP), the
University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC), and Salisbury University (SU)
by including profiles of each university in its yearly guide to the best higher
education institutions in the country.
UMCP,
flagship institution of the USM, receives high marks for its academics, student
life, and diversity. Comments in the official "Student Body" section of the Best 380 Colleges review take note of a
culture of tolerance. "I don't think I have ever learned so much about different
religions, cultures, orientations, or lifestyles. All of them are accepted and
even celebrated."
In
the Best 380 Colleges profile of UMBC,
the publication salutes UMBC's dedicated
and accessible faculty and a campus culture that
values diverse perspectives and enthusiasm for learning.
The
review for Salisbury University spotlights the school's academic experience and
variety of student life activities available. More on SU's selection can be
