Bowie State University 2016–2017 Annual Report A Message from President Breaux Reflecting on the notable achievements in the life of a university in a year reveals the contributions of each member of the campus community.

At Bowie State University, there were many examples of excellence throughout the campus in the 2016–17 fiscal year. Faculty and administrators, like Department of Counseling Chairperson Dr. Roslyn Green, worked to ensure that our academic programs receive national accreditations, signaling the strengths of our offerings. Students like Jesuye David, together with his faculty mentor, demonstrated excellence as David presented their research on a national stage. Staff members like Robert Batten made us proud by winning the highest award presented to staff of University System of Maryland institutions by the Board of Regents.

The year also marked the opening of the $102 million Center for Natural Sciences, Mathematics and Nursing, a transformational center for innovation in teaching, research and scholarship. Our student-athletes also gave us much to celebrate. Four teams made it to the championships in their respective sports, and the women’s bowling and men’s basketball teams won conference titles.

Our supporters like Timothy Adams continue to make long-term investments in the future of Bowie State students and the viability of the institution. He established an endowed scholarship over a decade ago, which, through ongoing contributions, was valued at nearly $180,000 in 2017.

Since July 2017 when I began as the 10th president of Bowie State University, I have encountered countless individuals who represent the pride and spirit of Bowie State University. I salute the faculty, staff, students, alumni and supporters who make a difference at Bowie State every day.

Aminta H. Breaux President

Two of Bowie State University’s counseling programs achieved that distinction when they received national accreditation, making Bowie State one of three Maryland universities and the only University System of Maryland school with this honor. The recognition elevates the profile of the already well-respected master’s degree programs in mental health counseling and school counseling. Dr. Roslyn Green, chair of the Department of Counseling, led the team charged with managing the accreditation effort.

The accreditation from Council for Accreditation of Counseling & Related Educational Programs (w) extends through March 2019. Both programs met the requirements of a thorough evaluation of hands-on learning experiences, faculty qualifications, academic support and student selection, among other criteria.

Graduates from CACREP-accredited programs are highly recruited by employers — in fact, three federal agencies require counselors to graduate from programs with the CACREP accreditation before they can work with their populations.

The Bowie State programs require students to complete an extensive curriculum of foundational and advanced courses, as well as hundreds of hours of clinical work. Graduates are prepared to become licensed or certified counselors.
