Howard needs to rethink site for biotech campus

When an institution of higher learning such as Howard University seeks to develop mostly forested land in the rural tier outside the Beltway, it is difficult to understand how it is "good for Prince George's County," as Howard Vice President Artis Hampshire-Cowan said. Ms. Hampshire-Cowan is correct that a biotech research and development campus would benefit the county's tax base, but it is possible to do the right thing in the wrong place.
