I am writing to you today about an individual who is being held without bond for making a credible threat of violence toward University of Maryland police officers. This is very troubling, and we are tremendously grateful for the anonymous tip that allowed UMPD to act swiftly and protect our community.

Our University has ​voiced​ strong opposition to H.R.1, the Tax Cut​s​ and Jobs Act, because it discourages participation in college, makes it more expensive for low- and middle-income students to attend, undermines the financial stability of universities, and—by swelling the national debt​​—impairs the Federal government's ability to invest in higher education, research, and economic growth.
