UMBC's 2020-2021 Fulbright Recipients!
Hey Political Science Department,
Please join me in congratulating one of our department's former students, Matthew Linz '20, on receiving a Fulbright U.S Student Program award. Matthew was a modern languages, linguistics, and intercultural
communication major and also received a World Politics Minor from our own department! I would highly encourage you to check out this link (

Welcome New Social Science Faculty
Join us on Oct. 14th for CS3's next virtual coffee hour!
Thanks to all who
attended CS3's virtual coffee hour yesterday. It was a wonderful
opportunity for new colleagues to make connections across departments,
especially since we're not able to meet casually on campus! CS3 would
like to extend a warm, UMBC welcome to the new faculty members who joined us:
Mark your calendars for our next coffee hour on October 14th at 10am
when we will meet and greet additional new faculty from the social sciences.

UMBC's 2020-2021 Fulbright Recipients
Congratulations to all!
“Ten recent UMBC
alumni are recipients of 2020 – 2021 Fulbright U.S. Student Program awards,
including seven from UMBC’s Class of 2020. Each year over 11,000 students apply
and just over 2,000 are selected from hundreds of colleges and universities
across the United States. The award secures funding for U.S. students to pursue
international graduate study, research, internships, or teaching.
While COVID-19 has presented a range of challenges
and uncertainties for Fulbright recipients, UMBC is proud to celebrate their
hard work and achievements. “This year’s recipients have demonstrated
great flexibility and maturity as they navigate the changes that our current
global situation requires,” explains Brian Souders,
M.A.‘19, TESOL and Ph.D. ’09, language, literacy and culture. He serves as
associate director of global engagement opportunities in UMBC’s office of
International Education Services.

Last Day to Enroll in Courses 9/10
Important words of advice
Hi Political Science Students,
I wanted to make all of you aware that tomorrow is the last day that you are able to enroll in a course for the semester. As many of you know, I do not encourage students to switch classes at this point in the semester because many classes have already had assignments due and collected. However, if you do decide to switch classes or enroll in a new course at this point in the semester, it is extremely important that you reach out to the professor of the course. I cannot emphasize this enough, especially now that the majority of classes are virtual. As a new student in the course, it is your responsibility to reach out to the professor via email and inquire about what you may have already missed and what you need to do in order to catch up in the class. In the virtual class setting it is more difficult for the professors to tell if you have recently added their course. Thanks for taking on this responsibility during these unique times.

New Website Link: Resources for Working Parents & Caregivers
The Women’s Center supports working parents and caregivers through advocacy, education, and resource sharing. When faculty, staff, and students are able to continue to meet their family obligations, they are better able to foster a sense of well-being and reach their fullest potential. To our UMBC caregivers juggling remote work and learning with caretaking responsibilities, we see you, we believe you, and you matter.
Working in partnership with the Provost Office, we are committed to providing you greater access to resources and support specific to UMBC and the broader Maryland community, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of these resources are also available to our students. Please review the resources via this new website and let us know if you have any questions or would like to schedule an individualized support meeting with someone on our staff.
We know this website won't fix the complexities and stress that come from having our whole lives happening in one place at the same time which requires juggling of work, learning, teaching, caregiving (and more!) ... but we hope it may alleviate an extra google search here or there or get you connected with a support system you may not have yet.
Again, we'll say it: To our UMBC working parents and caretakers: We see you. We believe you. You matter.
Note: This webinar is available to all students, faculty, and staff through UMBC's affiliation with the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) American Democracy Project.
In 2019, former Senator and Secretary of State John Kerry and former Ohio Governor John Kasich, working with others, launched the World War Zero coalition. The new bipartisan initiative brings together unlikely allies to mobilize people from all walks of life to tackle climate change and pollution in the same way we mobilized to win World War II. World War Zero’s goal is to drive 10 million climate conversations in 2020, including this webinar for AASCU members.
In this event, Kerry and Kasich will discuss the impacts of the climate crisis and pollution on American families and how our AASCU institutions can help prepare future a workforce that will lead America toward a clean energy economy that would create millions of good new jobs. They will engage in dialogue about how we can move beyond partisan politics and create a workforce for the future. This event is open to all AASCU campuses, faculty, students, staff and leadership.

Not Politics as Usual: World War Zero
An American Democracy Project Webinar offered by the AASCU
Not Politics as Usual: World War Zero, a Conversation With Former Secretary of State John Kerry and Former Governor John Kasich
(Webinar)
September 9th 2-3 p.m. eastern
This event is free and open to UMBC faculty, students, & staff. Please register here. If you want to bring a team or class, let us know and we will facilitate that experience.
In 2019, former Senator and Secretary of State John Kerry and former Ohio Governor John Kasich, working with others, launched the World War Zero coalition. The new bipartisan initiative brings together unlikely allies to mobilize people from all walks of life to tackle climate change and pollution in the same way we mobilized to win World War II. World War Zero’s goal is to drive 10 million climate conversations in 2020, including this webinar for AASCU members.
In this event, Kerry and Kasich will discuss the impacts of the climate crisis and pollution on American families and how our AASCU institutions can help prepare future a workforce that will lead America toward a clean energy economy that would create millions of good new jobs. They will engage in dialogue about how we can move beyond partisan politics and create a workforce for the future. This event is open to all AASCU campuses, faculty, students, staff and leadership.
I want to make you aware of a virtual event that is being held by UMBC's Center for Democracy and Civic Life:
The Center for Democracy and Civic Life will be holding a virtual
open house this Friday, September 4th, from 1-2 PM on WebEx. During

The Dresher Center for the Humanities welcomes one new Faculty Working Groups for 2020 - 2021: Latin American Feminisms (see description below)
All Faculty Working Groups are accepting new members. To join a group, contact its leader(s) to find out about upcoming activities.
Digital Storytelling
This group explores the research focus of digital storytelling including discussions of digital literacies and competencies in the humanities and social sciences, narrative and storytelling research, and classroom work across disciplines. The working group serves as a steering body for ongoing digital storytelling activities and connects with other campus work that involves storytelling for civic agency and engagement. The group promotes opportunities for faculty involved in digital storytelling research to share their experiences through presentations, workshops, roundtables and a possible one-day conference.
Disability Studies
This group will focus on reading interdisciplinary scholarship in disability studies (DS) and its application in higher education and other contexts. They will read and discuss DS and DS-related theories of embodiment, epistemology, methodology, subaltern politics, and cultural analysis. Applications of DS include programs of inclusion, universal design, and accessibility in education and elsewhere (such as accessibility in technology and digital spaces). Group conversations will include how faculty can use DS scholarship in their classes and to redesign their own teaching practices.
Immigration
The Immigration faculty working group brings together faculty members and graduate students who study international migration. Its purpose is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration in teaching, research, and service related to international migration at UMBC. International migration is a complex phenomenon, with cultural, economic and political aspects. Its causes, processes and consequences have been analyzed in multiple disciplines, from a variety of theoretical perspectives and with different research methods. UMBC currently has several faculty members and graduate students whose work on immigration reflects this diversity of approaches. However, for the most part, this work has been carried out independently, by individual faculty members and graduate students within their home departments. There is an untapped potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in teaching, research and service related to this broad theme.
*NEW* Latin American Feminisms
Leaders: María Célleri (Gender, Women’s, and Sexuality Studies), Tania Lizarazo (Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communications and Global Studies), Yolanda Valencia (Geography and Environmental Systems), and Thania Muñoz D. (Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural Communication)
The Latin American Feminisms Working Group is an interdisciplinary multilingual research group that focuses on feminist and decolonial Latin American and Caribbean scholarship from a hemispheric perspective. Attentive to the inequitable politics of translation between South America and North America, the group centers scholarship from and for Latin America and the Caribbean.In particular, it considers the formation of Latin American and Caribbean feminisms from a decolonial and intersectional framework that honors the work of Indigenous, Black, and Brown women. We bring together faculty, graduate students, artists, and community members from the humanities and social sciences to engage in and debate issues around race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, mobility, feminism and decoloniality as these pertain to the Latin American and Caribbean hemisphere, which begins in the Southern Cone and extends to the Latinx/Chicanx diaspora. We read and discuss recent work around Latin American and Caribbean studies, invite scholars from Latin America to speak about their work, as well as collaborate to support our work and move our research projects forward.
Sound Studies
Over the past decade, sound studies has been generating a buzz in disciplines across the humanities. The dual purpose of this group is to: 1) facilitate more cross-disciplinary discussions about sound, and 2) bring together faculty members with shared interests to encourage collaboration. The group discusses relevant sound studies issues from different disciplinary perspectives, has informal presentations of their own in-process work, and listens to invited talks from guest speakers.
