UMBC English Graduate Entering Rutgers Univ. Poetry MFA
See below for a positive message from UMBC English graduate Maxi Wardcantori ('19), who will be entering Rutgers University's Poetry MFA program. Congratulations to Maxi on this accomplishment--and best of luck!

"After graduating in May with a B.A. in English Literature and a minor in Medieval & Early Modern Studies, Maxi Wardcantori will be attending a two-year Poetry MFA program at Rutgers University. She was awarded full tuition funding, as well as a yearly stipend, and was additionally selected for a paid undergraduate lecturing position in the English department. Her graduate thesis will be completed under the mentorship of award-winning poet Brenda Shaughnessy, who Maxi has long admired and is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with. After Rutgers, Maxi hopes to teach creative writing to college students, but she is excited to pursue whatever the world might have in store for her. She is very grateful to the English department and the professors who supported her along the way."

The university says you have until June 10 (i.e. after grades come out) to switch to pass/fail grading.  The Asian Studies Program will accept pass/fail grades in core courses, electives, and for the 302 level of Asian languages for this term only.  (Normally, you have to pass with a "C" or better in your major and minor courses.)

The lower levels of language will defer to the MLLI Department, which teaches the courses, on what you need to pass and be able to move on to the next level.  We expect an official determination on this late next week.

Let me know if you have questions, or if you would like to talk pros and cons of going pass/fail in any of your courses.  

As a reminder, Advising is now in full swing, and you can sign up for advising appointments in the link below.

I'm adding new times all the time.  Starting next week, I'll also be holding virtual office hours on Google Hangout.  I'll post the times here when I've nailed them down.

Take care, and get in contact (oyen@umbc.edu) with any questions or concerns.

To pass the time, they tell each other stories…”

(Cover copy. The Decameron, by Giovanni Boccaccio, Penguin Classics, 1972)

As a creative response to the postponement of the DST2020 Conference, the conference organizers are initiating a project we call the “Digital Decameron.”  As in Boccaccio’s original, the project will run ten days, with ten stories featured here each day.  We will begin on March 30, the original planned start of DST2020.

We welcome your submissions.

We are inviting those who want to create new digital stories to do so, or find one that has inspired you, or look for one, as you might find on the StoryCenter YouTube channel, that you find particularly powerful.

There are no particular rules; it could be a new story or a previously created one; it could be a direct response to the current situation, or simply a story that celebrates humanity in all its imperfection; it could be a personal story, or any story you would like to tell in the circumstances. A length of less that five minutes is suggested.

Upload your new story to YouTube, or find a digital story and copy the URL, and send the link to: digitalstories@umbc.edu.  If you are uploading a new story, make sure you add your description as part of your upload process on YouTube.

Stories received before March 30 will be considered for the initial ten days.  Beyond this, we hope to grow the collection and keep it available here, so submissions will remain open after the 30th.


    “To take pity on people in distress is a human quality which every man and woman should possess, but it is especially requisite in those who have once needed comfort, and found it in others. … in my anguish I have on occasion derived much relief from the agreeable conversation and the admirable expressions of sympathy offered by friends, without which I am firmly convinced that I should have perished.”

    (Preface to Decameron)

“The Digital Decameron” and the 9th International Digital Storytelling Conference (DST2020) are organized collaboratively by Loughborough University (UK),  StoryCenter (US),  University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) (US), SCLDA – Smithsonian Center for Learning and Digital Access (US), Montgomery College (US), Patient Voices (UK)
