Young Scholars Campus Visitation Program 
Visits for young scholars (elementary and middle school students) to the campus of Morgan State University is coordinated by the Family, Student and Teacher Academic Resilience program (fSTAR) of the National Center for the Elimination of Educational Disparities (NCEED) in the School of Education and Urban Studies (SEUS)These visits to the Morgan State campus are designed to expose children to college life, encourage their academic studies and forge relationships with public schools and their families. During their visit students are given a tour of the campus, informed about the history of Morgan State University, and are engaged in a conversation about their personal aspirations. Visiting schools are also welcome to enjoy lunch in the university’s Thurgood Marshall Residence Hall dining room.
