The university’s beautifully landscaped, 329-acre campus is a blend of traditional and modern architecture, open space, woods and streams. Within walking distance is the college town of Towson, with its tree-lined residential streets, restaurants, bookstores, a branch of the county library, movies and shopping. The university is also conveniently located near the cultural, recreational and entertainment attractions that Baltimore and Washington, D.C., have to offer.
