in academic life at the university. With a regional and national focus,<br />

the Arts Program is dedicated to the acquisition, preservation, study,<br />

exhibition, and interpretation of works of art of the highest quality in<br />

a variety of media that represent its constituents and to continuing<br />

its historic dedication to Maryland and Asian art.<br />
