'''University of Maryland Eastern Shore''' ('''UMES''') is a [[Public university|public]] [[Historically black colleges and universities|historically black]] [[land-grant university|land-grant]] [[research university]] in [[Princess Anne, Maryland]]. It is part of the [[University System of Maryland]]. It is [[Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education|classified]] among "Research Colleges and Universities".<ref>{{cite web |title=Carnegie Classifications Institution Lookup |url=https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/institution/university-of-maryland-eastern-shore/ |publisher=American Council on Education |website=carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu |access-date=March 22, 2025}}</ref> It was established as '''Delaware Conference Academy'''. It has also been known as '''Princess Anne Academy''' and other names during its evolution.

==History==
{{more citations needed|section|date=December 2025}}
[[File:Thurgood-marshall-2.jpg|thumb|UMES is a member of the [[Thurgood Marshall College Fund]]]]

The University of Maryland Eastern Shore has been known by a series of names reflective of its location, evolving role, and mission over a period spanning three centuries. It opened September 13, 1886, under the auspices of the Delaware Conference of the [[Methodist Episcopal Church]]. Benjamin and Portia Bird welcomed nine students that first day to a converted farmhouse on 16 acres. The school was at first envisioned as a preparatory school for the private [[Centenary Biblical Institute]] in Baltimore, which was affiliated with the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1890 it changed its name to Morgan College to honor the first chairman of its board of trustees; and is now the public [[Morgan State University]]. By the end of the first academic year, 37 students were enrolled in the Delaware Conference Academy in Princess Anne.

Because of segregation in the state, African-American students could not enroll in the [[University of Maryland|Maryland Agriculture College]] in College Park, which offered advanced instruction in farming techniques and related trades commonplace in the late 19th century. Congress enacted the [[Morrill Land-Grant Acts#Expansion|Second Morrill Act of 1890]], which required states to establish colleges for African-American students in order to gain or continue to receive land-grant funds. The state of Maryland formalized a partnership with Morgan to underwrite "[[Land grant college|land-grant]]" education for African-Americans on Maryland's lower Eastern Shore.

By the turn of the 20th century, the school was known widely as '''Princess Anne Academy''', although in some circles it was informally referred to as Morgan's "industrial branch." The public-private partnership between the state and Morgan inspired another alternative name, at least according to state government archives: the '''Eastern Shore Branch of Maryland Agriculture College'''.

In the midst of the Great Depression, Maryland courts directed the state to admit qualified African-American applicants to its publicly funded law school in Baltimore. Historians believe this ruling led the state to convert Princess Anne Academy to a public institution.

Fifty years after opening, the school formally passed from church control to state ownership with the first of four $25,000 installment payments &ndash; just as it was developing as a baccalaureate degree-granting college. Maryland's public flagship campus in College Park was designated its administrative agency. In 1948, the '''Eastern Shore Branch of the University of Maryland''', then alternately known as Princess Anne College, was renamed '''Maryland State College''', a division of the University of Maryland.

Maryland State College became the University of Maryland Eastern Shore on July 1, 1970. Today it is one of 12 University System of Maryland public institutions of higher education. In addition to 745 acres on its main campus in Princess Anne, UMES also operates a 385-acre research farm in southern Somerset County, and the Paul S. Sarbanes Coastal Ecology Center on eight acres near [[Assateague Island]] in neighboring Worcester County.

UMES offers instruction in 37 undergraduate areas of study, as well as 15 master's degree and 8 doctoral degree programs; 27 are accredited.

In 2020, [[MacKenzie Scott]] donated $20 million to UMES. In 2025, she donated an additional $38 million, the largest single gift in the university's history.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Curtis |first=Sean |date=October 24, 2025 |title=UMES receives record $38 million donation from MacKenzie Scott |url=https://www.wboc.com/news/umes-receives-record-38-million-donation-from-mackenzie-scott/article_a27730f1-0355-4880-a5d5-2613ca7ca497.html |website=wboc}}</ref>

==Athletics==
{{see also|Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks}}
UMES was one of the founding members of the [[Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference]] in 1970. The school left the MEAC in 1979 but re-joined in 1981 and has been a member ever since. The Hawks compete in 15 sports at the [[NCAA Division I|Division I]] level: seven men's and eight women's.  Prior to 1970, the university was a member of the [[Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association]] in Division II.

The school was once a powerhouse in black college [[American football|football]], producing five undefeated seasons between 1947 and 1960. As at many smaller [[colleges]], the high costs associated with operating an NCAA Division I football program and complying with the federal [[Title IX]] gender-equity law became too much of a burden. The team was disbanded following the 1979 season.

In 1948, Maryland State College and [[Albright College]] played one of the first intercollegiate football games between an historically black institution and a majority-white institution.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.umes.edu/125/Content.aspx?id=55799|title=Vernon "Skip" McCain – 125th anniversary website profile|access-date=August 17, 2009}}</ref>

After a consultant produced a study in 2012 on the feasibility of reinstating football,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.umes.edu/football/UMES-Football-Feasibility-Study.pdf|title=UMES Feasibility Football Study 2012 by Alden & Associates|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170202143924/https://www.umes.edu/football/UMES-Football-Feasibility-Study.pdf|archive-date=February 2, 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> President Dr. Juliette B. Bell put together a task force to assess whether football should be reinstated.  On February 28, 2013, they decided to continue without football, but noted that the topic "may be revisited" in five years.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.umes.edu/PR/News-Articles/UMES-passes-on-restarting-intercollegiate-football/|title=UMES passes on restarting intercollegiate football|access-date=June 14, 2013}}</ref>
NFL player and coach [[Art Shell]] attended UMES.

UMES is tied with [[Florida State University|Florida State]] for the most alumni appearing in a single Super Bowl game. In the 1968 game ([[Super Bowl III]]) between the New York Jets and the Baltimore Colts, UMES was represented by four alumni: [[Earl Christy]] (1961–1964), [[Johnny Sample]] (1954–1957), [[Emerson Boozer]] (1962–1965), and [[Charlie Stukes]] (1963–1967).

The UMES women's bowling team won the [[NCAA Bowling Championship]] in 2012 in Ohio against [[Fairleigh Dickinson University]] and in 2008 in [[Omaha, Nebraska]] against [[Arkansas State University]]. They won the series 4-2 (in a best of 7 match). The team was led by All-Tournament players Jessica Worsley (who was named the tournament MVP) and Maria Rodriguez. With the series win, UMES became the first HBCU to win a women's NCAA national championship.  The UMES women won their second 2011 NCAA Bowling Championship in Taylor, Michigan against [[Vanderbilt University]], also winning the series 4-2 (in a best of 7 match). Kristina Frahm (named tournament MVP) and Maria Rodriguez were named to the All-Tournament team en route to their victory. That season, along with the NCAA Championship, UMES also won the [[United States Bowling Congress|USBC]] Team Championships over [[Lindenwood University]], as well as the [[Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference|MEAC]] Championship.  In 2007, the women's bowling team came in second at the NCAA National Championship in Orlando, Florida and fell to Vanderbilt in a 4–3 series. The team was led by All-Tournament players Marion Singleton and Jessica Worsley. The UMES women's bowling team won the MEAC Championship in 2000, 2006, 2007, and 2008.

UMES men's basketball is coached by [[Jason Crafton]]. The school led the nation in scoring during the 1973–1974 season with 97.6 points per game, including future NBA picks Rubin Collins, [[Talvin Skinner]], William Gordon and [[Joe Pace (basketball)|Joe Pace]].  The team defeated [[Manhattan College]] 84–81 in the first round of the 1974 NIT and fell to [[Jacksonville University]] 85–83 in the quarterfinals.  The team has never played in the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.

During the 2010–11 season, UMES had a men's and women's basketball player surpass the 1,000-career point mark.  Hillary Haley passed the mark on the men's side with a 24-point performance against [[Coppin State University|Coppin State]] on February 19, including his first season at [[St. Bonaventure University|St. Bonaventure]]. On the women's side, Casey Morton scored 10 points against [[Savannah State University|Savannah State]] to surpass the mark, finishing with 1,230 in four years with the Lady Hawks. The next season, Adobi Agbasi finished third in Division I in blocks per game with 3.72 per contest, becoming the all-time shot-blocker in UMES women's basketball history with 239 total blocks, achieving that mark on March 1, 2012, against Savannah State.

In 2011, the Hawks men's outdoor track team was ranked third in the Mid-Atlantic Region by the [[U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association]], and subsequently was the highest ranked team in the state of Maryland.  The following season, three UMES outdoor track athletes earned All-America status: [[Lénora Guion-Firmin]] earned First Team in the 400-meter dash, later earning a spot with the French 4x400-meter team in the [[2012 Summer Olympics]], while [[Andre Walsh]] and [[Vanessa Henry]], in the men's 400-meter hurdles and women's shot put, earned Second Team.
In 2014, The men's side won the MEAC Cross Country Championships.

The UMES women's volleyball team won its first MEAC championship in the history of the school in November 2011 with a win over [[Florida A&M University|Florida A&M]] in the title game, earning its first NCAA Tournament berth ever.  The Hawks fell to eventual national champion [[UCLA]] in the first round.  In 2012, the team repeated as MEAC champions with another five-set win over Florida A&M to advance to the NCAAs again, falling to 4-seed [[Nebraska Cornhuskers women's volleyball|Nebraska]] in its first match. The team has won the MEAC Northern Division each of the past six years, combining to go 61–3 in conference regular season matches in that time, and also holds the longest current home-winning streak in Division I, being victorious in its last 30 matches at home.
