Statement from President Wallace D. Loh on passing of Maryland House Speaker Michael E. Busch – April 7, 2019

My deepest condolences to the family and colleagues of Michael Busch, the longest-serving House Speaker in our State's history, whose advocacy for education, health care, gun safety, and the environment helped improve the lives of all Marylanders. Flags on campus will fly at half-staff as directed by Governor Larry Hogan.

The Speaker’s legacy of public service will endure for generations.
