<Title>Alumni Spotlight: Meet Marisa Haas</Title>
<Tagline>Life after graduation as an MCS major</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span><strong>By:</strong> Sofia Brouse</span></p><strong><br></strong><p><span><strong>Photo Credit:</strong> [Photo taken at UMBC Career Fair headshot booth, photographer unknown]</span></p><p><span><br></span></p><p><span>Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing MCS graduate Marisa Haas about what her life looks like after graduating college this past Spring. During this interview, Marisa discusses how completing her MCS degree at UMBC has helped her with her career after college along with where she sees herself in the future. </span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>What is your name, major, and when did you graduate from UMBC? Do you have any interests or hobbies outside of work?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“My name is Marisa Haas, my major was in Media and Communication Studies and I graduated this past Spring of 2023. Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, scrap booking, running, growing plants and spending time with my family.”</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>What are you doing now that you are out of school? How are you enjoying it?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“Now that I am out of school I work a full time job with an HVAC Company named Daikin Applied as a Sales Coordinator. I am enjoying it! I have learned a lot about the mechanical side of HVAC as well as how to assert myself in professional settings, how to network as well as how to be a great team player.”</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>What does your day typically look like now that you have graduated from UMBC?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“My day starts at 5 am when I wake up and get ready for my day. I stretch every morning, sometimes I boil some oatmeal before work and drink a coffee, other days I'll stop by a local coffee shop on my way in. I will leave my house by 6:40am and get to work by 7am. Once I get to work I assess the jobs and projects that need the most attention and focus on getting them worked through. I will leave work around 3:30 and head home to which I normally try to take my son to the park/ play ball with him and start to make dinner. Once I make dinner I sit down to eat with my family and we watch a movie or just hang out together.”</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>Now that you have had some experience with life outside of college, how did your time in the MCS department at UMBC prepare you for your career?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“I feel that my major best prepared me for opposing thoughts and personalities that are in this world. Media and Communications has helped me see the bigger and symbolic meaning that is in my industry now as well as the people's lives that I work with.”</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>Tell me about a lesson that you learned during your time at UMBC that proved to be helpful in your time as a graduate.</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“One lesson I learned while at UMBC was to not judge anyone you see, people are complex beings and there is more to a person than how they come off. Plus, all people are weird and we are not the judge of that.”</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>Where do you see yourself professionally in 5 years?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“In 5 years, I see myself taking every opportunity I get to grow either in my business or taking a new opportunity. I see myself satisfied with my growth and to keep reaching for the next endeavor.”</span></p><p><br></p><p><span>If you had to give one piece of advice to students who are about to graduate, what would it be?</span></p><p><span><strong><br></strong></span></p><p><span>“My piece of advice would be to keep your head up and to not give up on yourself. It can be tricky navigating life after graduation but keep your eyes open to opportunity even if it is not your ideal job, plan or goal, always remember you can build on skills and opportunities and to keep striving for the direction you want to head in.”</span></p><p><span><br></span></p><br></span></div>

<Title>Alumni Spotlight: Rebecca Guy</Title>
<Tagline>Theory and Application in Everyday Life</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><h5>Written by Dan Glenon<br><span><span>Photo Credit: </span><span>Justin Sweeney</span></span></h5><div><span><span><br></span></span></div><p><span>Rebecca Guy is an example of how the lessons from MCS have made her ready for anything that work life has thrown at her. Since her shift into media production, Rebecca realized that the lessons she learned about intent in media are applied and present across every major brand she has worked with. And thanks to the diverse skill set she learned through the MCS curriculum, Rebecca knows the production process from beginning as a thought to a finished  product.</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>Q: The basics! Who are you? Where are you from? What interested you in media studies? What are you doing now?</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>A: I'm Rebecca, originally from LaPlata; a small-ish town in Southern Maryland. I chose MCS because it offered classes broad enough for me to experience the many sides of media related work but also offered specialized tracks once I decided which avenue to pursue. And when entering a field as broad as "media," it really helped me to know I was making the right decision for my future. Now, I'm a Producer making TV, radio, streaming, and social media ads at a post production house in Baltimore. Some of our bigger clients include Toyota, Dick's Sporting Goods, and Pandora Jewelry, just to name a few.</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>Q: Is there a particular teacher that left a lasting impact on you? What lesson left that impact? </span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>A: I believe it was Professor Adelman who incorporated into every lesson that everything you see in media is done "on purpose and by design." If an actor is wearing a blue shirt, it wasn't because the wardrobe department found a sale on blue shirts. Every decision was made to convey a message and it's important to know what that message is. It's taught me to closer examine the media I consume and certain details of life as well. Even the most inconspicuous detail has a purpose and is worth it, or even necessary, to take the time to dissect. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention Dr. Loviglio's lesson "consider the source" which is a good lesson in general but especially so when consuming media.</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>Q: After you started your first job in your career path, how prepared did you feel after going through the MCS program?</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>A: The MCS program set me up for a lot of success in my career path. I was taught the analytical, the philosophical, the technical, the practical, and the theoretical aspects of media which afforded me a wealth of knowledge and experience, making me a well-rounded candidate for employment.</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>Q. Is there a particular movie, show, song, or game that you love that you look at differently after going through the MCS program?</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>A. Reality television will never be the same to me. After seeing what can be done through clever writing, producing, and editing, I learned it's easy to create something that feels raw and unscripted when in reality, everything was done "on purpose and by design." ;)</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>Q: Any advice you want to offer to MCS students? Any ideas for the teachers after being out of school for a few years?</span></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p><span>A: Don't be afraid to ask for advice from someone in your desired position. I've learned that a lot of people in senior positions are more than happy to share tips and pass down their knowledge to recent graduates looking to get started in the field. Ask to shadow someone for a day, ask for tours, ask for anything you think might help you along your career. A lot of doors will open if you simply knock.</span></p><p><br></p></div>

<Title>Asian Studies December Updates</Title>
<Tagline>Finals Events! Lipitz Lecture! Have You Been Advised?</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>Somehow, it is December, and the end of the semester is nearly upon us. As we race into finals and the holiday season, here are some highlights of things happening on and around campus and classes in the coming days - be sure to take a look! </p><h5>Spring 2024 Advising - Are You Registered?</h5><p>Classes for Spring 2024 are filling quickly! Have you received your advising clearance and finished your registration for the coming semester? If not, it's not too late! </p><p><strong><a href="https://asianstudies.umbc.edu/students/advising-info/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Start here</a></strong> with our advising guide for Asian Studies students. The start of Spring 2024 will be here sooner than you think - don't wait! </p><h5>Winter Class Offering Reminders</h5><p>If you've registered for Spring 2024 but are thinking about an empty January with not much to do, have you considered taking a Winter Session class? There are two classes available which count towards an Asian Studies major, minor, or certificate: </p><ul><li>ASIA 300: Modern East Asia [online, asynchronous]</li><li>HIST 381: From Samurai to Salariman [online, asynchronous]</li></ul><p>Registration for Winter 2024 is open and ongoing! For more information about dates, fees, and other details, visit <strong><a href="https://winter.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">the Winter Session website</a></strong>.</p><h5>Tomorrow: Lipitz Lecture with Dr. Vaporis</h5><p>The final session in Fall 2023's Humanities Forum is tomorrow's Lipitz Lecture. Dr. Vaporis's talk, "The Black Ships: Commodore Perry, American Exceptionalism, and the Opening of Japan, 1852-54," will explore the story of the official American expedition to Japan in 1852-54 to “open” the far-flung country to trade and a western-based diplomatic order. It also argues for the need to reassess the importance of the mission in the context of U.S. foreign policy and history, and to highlight it as one of the earliest, most significant, and in many respects successful, exercises in American imperialism.</p><p>You can attend the Lipitz Lecture at 4pm in the Library Gallery tomorrow - Wednesday, December 6. </p><h5>Upcoming Dates and Deadlines</h5><div><ul><li>Dec 6 - Lipitz Lecture - 4pm, Library Gallery [see above]</li><li>Dec 12 - Last day of classes.

<Title>Spring 2024: LLC 750.01/CSST 492.01: Black Queer Studies</Title>
<Tagline>Instructor: Dr. Tanya Saunders - Wednesdays, 4:30 - 7:00PM</Tagline>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">This graduate level course is a survey course of the scholarship and key debates in the emerging field of
    Black Feminism and Black Queer Studies. We will take an intersectional approach in understanding how
    race, sexuality, gender and coloniality affects our understanding of ourselves, and how we experience
    social life through placing non-heteronormative Black and Latinx Queer subjects (not mutually exclusive)
    at the center of our analyses. We will engage the social implications of the scientific study of sexuality. We
    will do this by engaging key theoretical perspectives in the area of Black feminist and queer identities and
    cultural politics from the African Continent and across the Diaspora in the Americas. Black feminist and
    sexuality studies are large and broad fields of inquiry, therefore this course is not exhaustive. The goal of
    the course is to give you a strong theoretical base from which you can think about Diaspora, race, gender,
    sexuality and society. - Course open to upperclass undergraduates.</div>
