Next, we have our Language Hour meetings, which take place on Tuesdays in Sherman 007 from 6-7pm. At Language Hour, students can practice conversation and receive help in an Asian language of choice.
We also have a variety of academic and social events planned as well, so I encourage everyone to stop by!

Please note that the two fifth floors in Fine Arts do not connect, so the Asian Studies conference room is only accessible by using the elevator or stairs closest to the Engineering Building.

ANCS Study/Travel Tour - Italy!
March 13th through the 22nd, 2020!
The UMBC Ancient Studies Department will conduct its annual study tour in Rome and Italy March 13-22, 2020. The price of
$3,000.00 (based on a group of 25) includes all air and land travel, twin-share accommodation for 8 nights, 8 buffet breakfasts, 2 lunches, 3 dinners, and entrance to all archaeological sites and museums on the itinerary. Single rooms are available at an additional cost of
$450.00. ANCS majors and minors, UMBC students, faculty, staff, alumni, and members of the community are welcome on the tour. The trip can be taken as a 3-credit course in the Winter 2020 term (ANCS 301; winter semester tuition applies). Scholarships are available to Ancient Studies majors taking the course for credit. Places are limited, so reserve yours today! An initial deposit of
$700.00 is due
October 24, 2019. Applications must be made through the
IES Portal at UMBC. The ANCS Department will pay all fees associated with this application.
The tour begins with four nights in Rome and visits to the Hadrian’s Villa in Tivoli, the Vatican (and Sistine Chapel), the Ara Pacis, and several other important sites. Then we travel by coach to Sorrento on the famed Amalfi Coast, stopping on the way at Tiberius’s villa at Sperlonga and at Paestum to view the remarkably intact temples of Hera and Athena before touring the small but excellent museum there. From Sorrento, we will visit two cities buried under and preserved by the ash of Mt. Vesuvius, Pompeii and Herculaneum. On the way back to Rome, we will tour the extraordinary National Archaeological Museum of Naples and the Greek settlement and home to the Sibyl, Cuma. Our final day in Rome will include visits to the Forum and Palatine, Trajan’s Column and Market, the Colosseum.

A Beloved Reading of Toni Morrison
September 18, 12:00-1:30
AOK Library Rotunda
The Dresher Center for the Humanities at UMBC and the Department of English invite you to honor and remember the life of author and Nobel laureate Toni Morrison with a "read-in."
The first African-American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature,
in 1993, Toni Morrison was the author of 11 novels as well as children’s
books and essay collections. Among them were celebrated works like Song
of Solomon, which received the National Book Critics Circle Award in
1977, and Beloved, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988. Toni Morrison died at the age of 88 on August 5, 2019.
You are invited to read a short selection from a Morrison work or just come to listen.
To volunteer as a reader, please contact Courtney C. Hobson, Dresher Center Coordinator, at chobson1@umbc.edu.

Creating Citizen Critics and Engaged Digital Communities
Graduate Students encouraged to attend!
Creating Citizen Critics:
Using Adobe Spark to Engage Digital Communities
Friday, September 27, 2019
10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Performing Arts and Humanities Building, Room 216
In
her essay “Beyond the Aesthetic: Citizen Critics & Protopublic
Classrooms,” Rosa Eberly proposes that classrooms can be transformed
into protopublic spaces where students can access tools to become
engaged and vigorous citizen critics. This workshop will teach
participants how to use the free suite of web and mobile applications, Adobe Spark,
to foster this engagement by creating content such as social media
posts, web stories, and animated videos. Participants will have the
opportunity to create a sample blog post that incorporates text, images,
and videos. They will also explore the web story feature, which allows
students to create magazine-style blogs or essays that can be used for
public-facing course assignments. No prior experience is required to use
Adobe Spark and the program can be accessed via your web browser or by
downloading the app to your smartphone or tablet.
