Matt Heimbach, the former president of Towson University's now-disbanded student group Youth for Western Civilization, is part of an initiative to create another student organization that is already generating controversy. Youth for Western Civilization faced criticism after members reportedly wrote "White Pride" in chalk at campus locations. The camera, located on Cromwell Bridge Road, was first vandalized on Aug. 17. The list will be released at a Sept. 18 Board of Education meeting. Superintendent S. Dallas Dance said the school system is aiming to classrooms at all schools air conditioned. Two firefighters and a police officer have filed lawsuits claiming the county forced them to undergo illegal medical testing, which was then used to force them into retirement. In a rare comment on pending litigation, county spokesman Don Mohler said the county has done nothing wrong. The 3-M Cloud Library System gives library cardholders access to more than 2,500 titles.
