Unlocking Career Growth
By Anasia Mickle
Internships are like stepping stones for career growth. They give students real-world experience, help them learn practical skills, and build professional connections. Let's dive into why internships are so important for shaping careers and how teachers can help students make the most of them.
A Teacher's Perspective-
Dr. Snyder says, "Internships give you experience, they give you a network contact, multiple network contacts. You can use that internship experience to make some, and build upon network connections, which are extremely valuable for when you do go on your job search." Teachers like Dr. Snyder don't only teach in the classroom; they also help students find internships by giving them advice on where to look, by sending internship opportunities through mass emails, or teaching classes on how to improve their resumes and cover letters, and how to prepare for interviews. Throughout the internship search teachers offer support and feedback, guiding students through challenges and celebrating their successes.
Student Experiences -
Melanie says internships are important so, “Get to know your professors well and don’t be afraid to ask them for advice because it may lead you down the perfect road to find your passion.” She was a communications intern for our own Retriever athletics program!
Scherrie was accepted to intern for UMBC Interdisciplinary CoLab: FindingBlackGirhood: A Digital Archive. Throughout her internship she will work with a team to create and present a beta version of the site that will contribute to creating an innovative archive of freedom. The website will include an Introduction that considers the intersections of Black girlhood and film, film descriptions, and analytical essays on each film. She says, Through internships, “I’m allowing my passion to grow and as I learn”
Finding the Right Fit: Tips for Students
If you're looking for an internship, here are some tips:
Start Early: Don't wait until the last minute. Start looking and applying for internships early.
Use Resources: Talk to your teachers, use career services, and go to networking events to find the right internship for you.
Customize Applications: Make sure your resume and cover letter fit each internship you apply for. Show how your skills and goals match exactly what they're looking for.
Internships are like bridges that connect students to their future careers. They help students grow personally and professionally, giving them a taste of what's to come. With support from teachers and peers, students can make the most of their internship experiences and set themselves up for success in their careers.

Farewell to CS3's inaugural director
Dr. Christine Mallinson
Our inaugural director, Dr. Christine Mallinson, has accepted a new position as the first Assistant Vice President of Research and Scholarly Impact at UMBC.
Christine has dedicated more than six years to establishing and growing CS3. Her vision, leadership, and interdisciplinary collegiality will be sorely missed. We wish her the very best in this exciting new chapter in her career and look forward to collaborating with her on future projects.
Thank you, Christine, for your leadership as the founding Director of CS3! We will miss your dedication, enthusiam, and warmth, and we can't wait to see how your new role develops.
The Dresher Center for the Humanities is pleased to announce a new director for the Humanities Scholars program.
Dr. Kate Drabinski is Principal Lecturer in Gender, Women's, +
Sexuality Studies (GWST) and Associate Director of the
Women Involved in
Learning and Leadership (WILL+) program. Her focus areas of teaching
and research include queer theory, transgender studies, LGBTQ+ history,
and public humanities pedagogies and practices. As co-PI with Dr. Carole
McCann on the Mellon-funded Affirming Multivocal Humanities grant, she
organizes the UMBC LGBTQ+ Oral History Project, bringing students into
conversation with queer people both on and off campus to record and
preserve the histories of our communities. Her latest publication is
Baltimore Revisited: Stories of Inequality and Resistance in a U.S. City, co-edited with UMBC's own Dr. Nicole King and Dr. Joshua Davis of the University of Baltimore.
Outside
of UMBC Dr. Kate is an avid explorer of Baltimore's history, present,
and future, usually on her much-loved bicycle. She leads walking tours
about the city's LGBTQ+ and Civil Rights histories for Baltimore
Heritage, where she serves on the Board. She organizes walking tours for
students, faculty, and staff about the history of Pratt Street, public
transportation, urban renewal, and more. She is keenly interested in why
where we are is as it is, and how it might be otherwise.
Dr.
Kate is excited to direct the Humanities Scholars program after serving
on the committee for nearly a decade and teaching the freshman seminar
several times. She was part of a similar program at her undergraduate
institution and knows intimately the power of cohort-based
interdisciplinary humanities teaching and research for making more
interesting, meaningful, and impactful lives for all of us. She looks
forward to working with students, faculty, and staff to continue
building UMBC's vibrant humanities community.

Announcing our new Director of the Dresher Center for the Humanities
Amy Froide, Professor of History
The Dresher Center is pleased to announce our new director, Professor Amy Froide.
Amy M. Froide is Professor of History and the former Chair of the History Department at UMBC. Her areas of expertise include the history of early modern Britain, European women’s history, and financial history. She is the author of Silent Partners: Women as Public Investors during Britain’s Financial Revolution, 1690-1750 (Oxford University Press, 2016). Her other books include Never Married: Singlewomen in Early Modern England (Oxford University Press, 2005) and Singlewomen in the European Past, 1250-1800 (University of Pennsylvania Press, 1999), co-edited with Judith M. Bennett. She is currently working on a book about a financial scandal in eighteenth-century London as well as a project on wives who separated from their husbands in early modern Britain. She continues to study female entrepreneurs, including speculators in European mining projects. Her research has been funded by fellowships from the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Henry H. Huntington Library, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the British Academy.
Professor Froide has a long standing interest in interdisciplinary teaching and research. She is the founding Director of UMBC’s
Entrepreneurship & Innovation Minor and she holds affiliate appointments in UMBC’s Gender, Women’s + Sexuality Studies and Language, Literacy, and Culture Ph.D. programs. She regularly mentors Master’s degree students in both early modern British and European women’s history. Former students have gone on to Ph.D. programs in the U.S. and the U.K. and three are currently professors. In addition to her research and administrative work, Prof. Froide was the recipient of the 2018 Maryland Board of Regents’ Award for Teaching Excellence and is currently UMBC’s Presidential Teaching Professor for 2024-27. She regularly shares her Humanities research with a general audience through articles in The Conversation, podcasts, lectures with
Profs & Pints, and pre-show theatre talks.
Prof. Froide looks forward to continuing the excellent work of outgoing Director Jessica Berman who has made the Dresher Center a hub of scholarly exchange and intellectual community. In addition to supporting faculty and graduate student research in the Humanities, Prof. Froide plans to promote work in new interdisciplinary fields such as Environmental and Public Health humanities, more broadly share out the innovative Humanities research being done by UMBC’s faculty, and advocate for the significance of Humanities disciplines at Public Research Universities.

CS3 Fall Faculty Writing Group
sign up by August 28th!
The writing group is an opportunity for faculty to be grouped with a few people from across disciplines UMBC to network and hold ourselves accountable to writing during the academic year. Groups will work together to identify a time to meet and set their own expectations.
The recommendation is to meet 1-2 hours per week, or every other week depending on the group's interest. Most groups do a check in and talk about their projects/week for about 15 minutes then spend the bulk of the time writing independently, then about 5 minutes to report out at the end.
