    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Seven UMBC writing tutors will be presenting at the 2020 Mid-Atlantic Writing Centers Association Conference, held this weekend at Towson University. Elaine MacDougall, director of the UMBC Writing Center, will also be participating in multiple events, including a workshop on trauma-informed writing workshops. <strong>Congratulations to everyone representing UMBC at MAWCA 2020!</strong><br>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>A6. Panel, LA 4310. <strong>Partnering for student success: Centering student agency in the writing and research process.</strong>
     Erin Durham, Elaine MacDougall, Allison Jennings-Roche, Beck Hertl, 
    Emma Jett, and Kyndall Hardwick; University of Maryland, Baltimore 
    County. The library and writing center staff have developed a strong 
    collaborative relationship to center student agency in the research and 
    writing process at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC).</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>C1. Roundtable, LA 4201. <strong>What Do “Diversity” and “Social Justice” Mean to Writing Center Practitioners?</strong>
     Violeta Brito, Uchendu Uchendu, Fleurine Amouzou Guiffo; University of 
    Maryland, Baltimore County. This roundtable will engage participants to 
    think critically about diversity and social justice in writing centers. 
    We will analyze the past, present, and future pedagogies of writing 
    centers in the context of social justice.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>C12. Workshop, LA 4214. <strong>Creating Trauma-Informed Writing Workshops: Reflection and Intervention in the Narratives of Our Lives</strong>.
     Elaine MacDougall, University of Maryland, Baltimore County.  
    Trauma-Informed writing workshops allow space for reflection and 
    intervention in our own thought processes. Writers can reflect on their 
    own sense of a “dominant cultural narrative” and work to transform that 
    narrative if necessary, giving voice to silence when imposed on 
    individuals in our communities, including writing center spaces.</div>
    <div><br></div>D5. Data Dash, LA 4204. <strong>Developing more effective tutoring strategies for multilingual writers in the Writing Center</strong>.

    Center.</div>

<Title>Don't sleep on The Museum of the Old Colony!</Title>
<Tagline>Learn Puerto Rican colonial history thru cultural artifacts</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>Did you know that in the middle of the 20th century, Puerto Rico was one of the primary manufacturers of women’s foundation garments sold in the US? </span></p>
    <p><span>There’s so much history about Puerto Rico to be learned from a visit to The Museum of the Old Colony, on view through March 14 at @cadvc_umbc. </span></p>
    <p><span>This art installation by Pablo Delano uses appropriated imagery, film clips, and objects to ironically bear witness to the colonial oppression imposed by the U.S. institutional and cultural fabric on virtually all aspects of Puerto Rican life since the 1898 occupation. With sardonic humor, The Museum of the Old Colony references traditional anthropological museums and their use of ethnographic imagery and didactic texts. </span></p>
    <p><span>Stop by the CADVC in the Fine Arts building today! </span></p>

<Title>Advising for Fall 2020</Title>
<Tagline>Sign up for advising appointments with Dr. Oyen now!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Fall advising appointments begin next week (for those with general questions) and continue in full-force after Spring Break.  The course schedule for fall will be released on Monday, March 23.<div><br></div>
    <div>Priority goes to Juniors and Seniors, as well as those planning study abroad, internships, and post-graduation plans.  If you are a returning freshman or sophomore who just needs clearance to register, consider seeing CAHSS advisor James Hamilton or Dr. Nianshen Song in the History Department.  Everyone else should plan to come meet with Dr. Oyen.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The Google Calendar sign up is here:</div>
    <div><a href="https://calendar.google.com/calendar/selfsched?sstoken=UUc1cHltUHhFSWJ0fGRlZmF1bHR8ZDY1MGM3NTg5ZmI2Njg1MjNlNDJjYmMxZTc4NWJkOTM" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://calendar.google.com/calendar/selfsched?sstoken=UUc1cHltUHhFSWJ0fGRlZmF1bHR8ZDY1MGM3NTg5ZmI2Njg1MjNlNDJjYmMxZTc4NWJkOTM</a></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>When you log in via your UMBC email, you can simply pick your slot. If you need to cancel for any reason, simply delete the appointment from your calendar, and it will automatically notify Dr. Oyen.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Most meeting slots are between the hours of 10 and 3, but alternate times can be arranged by direct request.</div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>All meetings are assumed to be in Dr. Oyen's office in FA549, unless you request an alternate location.  If you prefer not to meet on the 5th floor  given the lack of elevator access, please contact her directly (<a href="mailto:oyen@umbc.edu">oyen@umbc.edu</a>), and she will find an alternate location for your advising session.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>Happy fall planning!</span></div>
