    <span>UMBC’s 24th annual Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement Day (URCAD) was originally scheduled for April 22, 2020. While we are no longer able to host this event on campus due to the current crisis, we are excited to announce that URCAD will instead occur online and extend through the entire week of April 22 – 29.</span><br><br><span>This year’s URCAD will be supported by a technology called VoiceThread (VT), a platform for flexible, media-rich conversations that can occur anytime, anywhere. Attendees will be able to see students' research posters and slides, as well as art, performances, films, and video games, online throughout the week. Members of our UMBC community will be encouraged to leave video, voice, or text feedback for the presenters. Student presenters will be able to respond directly to questions and receive feedback during the week-long event.</span><br><br><span>We hope to preserve the spirit of URCAD and make this a meaningful and celebratory event for our campus community. We look forward to connecting with you all.</span><br><br><span>Please visit </span><a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/j5hdqe/jdozdbc/r31dhy" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">urcad.umbc.edu</a><span> for updates.</span><br><br><span><em>April Householder, Director of Undergraduate Research and Prestigious Scholarships</em></span>

<Title>Submit Classroom and Lab Software Requests By May 1!</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>The deadline for requesting software to be included in our physical labs, virtual labs, and classrooms is approaching. Software requests for Summer and Fall 2019 are due by May 1 (Summer deadline extended). All software requests must be renewed each semester. Please see our </span><a href="https://wiki.umbc.edu/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=29853446" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>Wiki page</span></a><span> for information about this process. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>Requests for licensed software must include: (1)  Proof of purchase and license information, and (2)  software media and installation instructions. Please contact us if you have questions about the appropriate license volume or type to purchase. Requests to install unlicensed software, software with license modes incompatible with our labs, or software with system requirements incompatible with our labs, may be rejected. DoIT will make accommodations for such requests to the extent they are practicable. </span></p>
    <br><p><span>Software requests must be submitted via an RT ticket containing the required information. You can create a ticket at </span><a href="https://rt.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>https://rt.umbc.edu/</span></a><span>, or by contacting the Technology Support Center (TSC) at 410.455.3838, if you require assistance. Software requested after the deadline is not guaranteed to be made available. DoIT will notify the requestor when the requested software is available in the lab. The requesting faculty or instructor is responsible for testing the software to ensure it is working as expected.  </span></p>
    <br><br><p><span>Software requests for one-time events:</span></p>
    <br><p><span>If you need software installed for a one-time purpose (for example, a 2-day workshop in which all users need access to the software), the request should be submitted no less than six (6) weeks prior to the first lab reservation for that class. The software will be removed once you are finished.</span></p>

<Title>Sherman Center announces 2019-20 research fellows</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>The Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities
    is pleased to announce its 2019-20 research fellows. Two projects were selected
    for funding - one led by <strong>Dr. Patricia
    Young</strong>, associate professor of education, and the other led by <strong>Dr. Jane Lincove</strong>, associate professor
    of public policy at UMBC. </p>
    
    <p>Dr. Young and co-investigator, Ms. Deborah Kariuki (Master
    of Arts in Education Graduate Program, UMBC), will conduct a yearlong study
    entitled, <em>Infusing a Culture-based
    Computational Thinking Curriculum in Urban Preschools</em>. They will work with
    Judy Center faculty and staff at Lakeland Elementary/Middle School to improve young
    learners’ computational thinking, thereby enhancing their problem solving
    skills and creativity. Dr. Young and Ms. Kariuki will develop, and with
    preschool teachers, test the Culture-based Computational Thinking Curriculum and
    instructional materials. In addition, they will design a parents’ guide to computational
    thinking for young learners.</p>
    
    <p>Dr. Lincove with co-investigators, Dr. Lieny Jeon (Johns
    Hopkins University) and Ms. Sarah Bollard (Baltimore City Public Schools), will
    conduct a three-year study entitled, <em>Judy
    Centers in Baltimore: Improving Data-Informed Decisions</em>. This study will
    develop a new database from existing sources to investigate the effect of Judy
    Center services on young children’s kindergarten readiness, the relative
    effectiveness of different Judy Center programs and services, and the potential
    for measuring outcomes for children <em>before</em>
    they enter kindergarten. In addition to improving early childhood data systems
    and infrastructure, this project will produce relevant research for policy and
    program improvements.</p>
    
    <p>Please join us in congratulating Dr. Young, Dr. Lincove, and
    their co-investigators.</p>

<Title>We are listening: Updates on Commencement</Title>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span>Dear UMBC Community,</span><br><br><span>Now more than ever, we are reminded of the many ways in which our community achieves excellence. Over the past few weeks, we have seen you demonstrate resilience, perseverance, and an unwavering resolve to help solve problems. We’ve watched as students, faculty, and staff have found new ways to build and sustain community during these uncertain times. Thank you for your creativity, patience, and compassion. </span><br><br><span>It’s been nearly three weeks since we wrote to share the unfortunate and disappointing news that we will not be able to hold in-person commencement ceremonies this spring. We invited you to work with us to find the best way to celebrate the many achievements of the Class of 2020, and we’ve been inspired by the thoughtful response. Over the past few weeks, we have heard from many students, parents, and colleagues about their concerns, and also their visions for how we recognize our graduates. More than 600 students responded to a survey and shared a range of ideas that have helped our team make important decisions and move forward.</span><br><br><span>Overwhelmingly, our students still want to celebrate in May, and we agree. We will be using a novel technology platform to host virtual commencement celebrations in May. Details will be available in the coming weeks at </span><a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/rzedqe/jdozdbc/rjm0gy" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">commencement.umbc.edu</a><span>.</span><br><br><span>In addition to virtual celebrations, we are working with students, faculty, and staff in our shared governance approach to consider a range of options for an in-person event at a later time. We will keep you informed as we explore these alternatives. Know that we—like you—want to have an in-person event so we can celebrate your accomplishments together, and we will find a way to make it happen. We will be in contact soon.</span><br><br><span>This is a generation-defining moment. We know that the Class of 2020 includes compassionate leaders and creative problem solvers. We need thinkers and experts across disciplines who can help us navigate our current and future challenges. We know that this is our Class of 2020. We shared your promise and potential with the world in a recent op-ed in </span><a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/rzedqe/jdozdbc/7bn0gy" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><em>The Baltimore Sun</em></a><span>.</span><br><br><span>With our students as our inspiration, we cannot help but find reasons to be hopeful for the future. Thank you for your grit and greatness.</span><br><br><em><span>President Freeman Hrabowski and Provost Philip Rous</span></em>
