Maryland law has a very specific definition for "public institution of higher education" it's a specific phrase used to mean University of Maryland system schools, Morgan State University, St. Mary's College of Maryland and the various community colleges. When or if the legislature intends to include private colleges and universities such as Johns Hopkins, they include specific language to that effect.
The USNA is a military installation. It is federal property, its students are members of the US and a small handful of foreign militaries, it receives no monies from the Maryland General Fund and if midshipmen paid tuition Maryland residents wouldn't pay less than non-Maryland residents. Nothing in the bill would or could apply to the USNA.
