Yep. Hagerstown, so panhandle/Appalachian Maryland.

No Howard has no plans to open a DO school. Morgan State has plans to open a DO school, but this school is not in relations with Morgan State. Morgan States school will be in Baltimore!

Paywall warning

Morgan State’s plan to train more Black doctors is years behind schedule

Construction hasn't started, funding appears uncertain and it'll be at least another two years before students enroll.
