Opportunity To Present Your Reasearch
Hi Everyone,
I would like to bring your attention to some possibilities that you have to present research papers you may have hiding in your computers.
1) Pi Sigma Alpha Undergraduate Research Conference at UMBC
This year Pi Sigma Alpha (the national political science honors society) will host an undergraduate research conference for students to present work they have done in Political Science. The work can be an independent study you have completed or
something you have completed for a class you have taken at UMBC or elsewhere. Students who participate in the conference present their work on large posters that will be displayed on
Wednesday APRIL 15, 2015 from 11am to 1pm. It is a fun opportunity for students to present their work to faculty and students in Political Science in a smaller environment. Please email Carolyn Forestiere if you are interested (
forestie@umbc.edu).
2) Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement Day (URCAD)
URCAD is a wonderful day on our campus when hundreds of students present their work as either poster or oral presentations. This year
URCAD is on April 22nd. Any work you have done in Political Science can be presented as a poster or oral presentation. Please participate if you are interested. Feel free to ask Carolyn Forestiere (
forestie@umbc.edu) any questions you may have and please refer to this website for information about URCAD:
I look forward to seeing you present your work!
All best,
Carolyn Forestiere, Ph.D.

Summer Funding for Research!
Hi Everyone,
I wanted to bring your attention to a wonderful opportunity we have at UMBC for undergraduate students to receive funding for research projects they would like to do during the summer months - the Undergraduate Research Award (URA). Students can receive up to $1,500 to work on their own projects over the summer.
Please refer to the following website for more information and please feel free to email Carolyn Forestiere (
forestie@umbc.edu) if you have questions.
All best,
Carolyn Forestiere, Ph.D.

We have just set up a Doodle Poll for this event. Please, participate by February 14th and let us know what day is more convenient for you.
Thanks!

Lynn Cazabon's Portrait Garden featured on MTA Light Rail
Audio and photo portraits of gardens kept by incarcerated
For the months of December 2014 and January 2015, Portrait Garden was displayed as a series of 100 posters in trains within the Baltimore Light Rail system. This public dissemination was conceived as a moving gallery designed to bring the women metaphorically into the community of Baltimore City.
Portrait Garden is a series of audio and photographic portraits of eleven women incarcerated at Maryland Correctional Institute for Women in Jessup, MD, culminating a 1-1/2 year long collaboration between GBCA Ruby Award winning artist and Associate Professor of Visual Arts Lynn Cazabon.
The artist was interviewed on Midday with Dan Rodricks on WYPR 88.1 FM, Friday, December 19th, 2014.
The complete set of images and audio interviews are available through the project website: http://portraitgarden.org

CFP Deadline: March 31, 2015
Voices of Change Storywork in Activism, Education, and Public Service
6th International Digital Storytelling Conference
September 25-27, 2015
Principal Venue - Smith College, Northhampton, MA
We invite you to join us in Massachusetts this fall for an amazing gathering of digital storytelling professionals, academics, youth and activists. The conference is hosted by Smith College and the Five Campus Consortium (Smith College, Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Amherst College). This will be the first time the International Conference will be held in the Western Hemisphere, and we are thrilled to have an opportunity to bring the international community to the United States.
As we have watched the events of the Fall of 2014 in the United States unfold regarding issues of race and social justice, we wanted the conference to reflect the current events by focussing on a principal theme of Youth and Activism. Our goal is to hold a one day youth summit in conjunction with the 2.5 day academic and practitioner conference. The hope is that a portion of the Youth Summit will be integrated into one event. In addition, we will be inviting an exploration of any number of additional themes including the use of Digital Storytelling in public health, curriculum, intercultural and international education, service learning, sustainability and the environment, heritage and memory, participation and social inclusion, as well as new and innovative forms of participatory media.
The conference will host various events in its structure for inclusion of diverse perspectives and voices. While there will be a formal process of juried paper presentation sessions for academics, we will also provide space for practitioners from community settings to present. We will work to have exhibition opportunities for individual digital stories, as well as a number of ancillary workshops, special events, and exhibitions to be held in the period surrounding the conference.
The conference invites proposals for academic papers that discuss digital storytelling and its theoretical, social, and cultural contexts. We also invite proposals from digital storytelling practitioners interested in reflecting on their work in community-based participatory media. All presenters are encouraged to show examples of digital stories within their allocated 15 to 20-minutes presentations.
Deadline for Abstract Submission: March 31, 2015
