UMBC Financial Economics students win national competition
Congratulations to Benjamin and Hans-Jacob!
Benjamin Ault and Hans-Jacob Larsen Nesheim were selected as the winner of the 14th annual "iOme Challenge" competition for their research essay, "US Retirement Policy: Personalizing Retirement Security." Professor Lamdin was their advisor.
UMBC is the first college or university to have won this competition three times!
In addition to the $5,000 award, they will present the essay as part of a symposium and reception in Washington DC on June 20. This can be attended in-person or remotely with no registration fee.
The Independent Film Movement
With its genesis in the experimental films of the 1920s, through Cassavetes, the French New Wave and Easy Rider in the 1960s, this course primarily addresses films under the auspices of the independent film movement beginning circa 1970. From its reaction to Hollywood blockbusters to its dilution into the pseudo-independent studio films of the 1990s, we will examine the definition, method, and social context of the movement with iconoclasts like Germaine Dulac, Oscar Micheaux, Stan Brakhage, John & Faith Hubley, Agnes Varda, John Cassavetes, John Sayles, John Waters, Lizzie Borden, Spike Lee, Tarantino, among others.
Summer Session II.
Six Weeks.
Two Evenings Per Week.
Lots of Films.
