Morgan State University to build wall around Baltimore campus after four students shot



A wall will be constructed around Morgan State University after five people, including four students, were shot at the Baltimore campus last week, according to school leaders.

University President David Wilson announced Tuesday that the college would be investing $22 million in security upgrades, including the construction of an 8,000-foot-long barrier to “eliminate unfettered access” to the school, the Associated Press reported.

“We’re doing this, let me be clear, not to keep out our neighbors and our community writ large; we are doing it to keep out the bad actors,” Wilson said during a town hall meeting.
Many at the historically Black university expressed their fears at the town hall meeting after the coronation ceremony for the school’s Mister and Miss Morgan State was disrupted due to gunfire on Oct. 3.
The shooting, which took place during homecoming week, left four student’s wounded, with the shooters still on the loose.
