Strategic Enrollment Planning Update
We are writing to provide you with an update on our strategic enrollment planning effort that was formally launched at the university retreat earlier this year.
The first phase of our planning focused primarily on research related to UMBC’s undergraduate students and included a review and assessment of enrollment and student success outcomes. The next phase will focus primarily on graduate student enrollment and progression.
We would like to acknowledge and thank the many members of the UMBC community who have engaged in the planning process to date and have provided important perspectives and input to the planning process through the university retreat, faculty, department chair, staff, student and program director focus groups, interviews and the hundreds of people who responded to faculty/staff survey. As the planning process proceeds, it will entail similar assessments and engagements.
We invite you to visit our
Strategic Enrollment Planning website to learn more about our efforts (including preliminary results of the faculty and staff survey) and invite your further participation in this important endeavor.

Lynne Schaefer, Vice President, Finance and Administration

Alternative Spring Break: Applications Due 11/25
Spend a week addressing social issues & building community
Alternative Spring Break (ASB) is a 6-day immersive experience offered through the Center for Democracy and Civic Life. The program takes place in Baltimore to foster sustainable connections and lay the groundwork for long-term collective civic action. The dates for ASB 2020 are March 15th - 20th.
As an ASB participant, you will develop skills that can help you reflect on experiences; share, solicit, and make use of stories; build community; work in partnerships; and analyze approaches to problem-solving to identify what works, and what else is possible. 100% of the participants in ASB 2019 said they had learned skills they could use in their own communities, including UMBC, and left them confident that they can make a difference.
ASB 2020 group experiences will focus on:
- Nutritional Equity (led by Tristen Griffith and Faith Davis)
- Housing Access and Homefulness (led by Ashley Amundsen and Chandler Jenkins)
- Creative Expression and Community Empowerment (led by Joshua Gray and Hager Younes)
You can find information, including in-depth topic descriptions, and access the application here. The application is due November 25, 2019 by 11:59 p.m.
For more information, contact Pat Michael, Community Civic Engagement Intern, Center for Democracy and Civic Life:
pmich1@umbc.edu.
Dear UMBC Faculty and Staff,
We are pleased to announce the formal launch of the Instructional Space and Scheduling Improvements Initiative (ISSI). Consistent with recommendations in UMBC’s Strategic Plan, the purpose of this initiative is to develop recommendations to significantly improve the availability and utility of instructional spaces at UMBC. This initiative follows from the Instructional Space and Scheduling Review Study that was conducted by Educational Consulting Services Corp. (ECS) and resulted in two reports: the Utilization Report and the Key Issues and Planning Directions Report. Based on the content of these reports, three informational sessions were conducted for the UMBC community in April and May 2019.
In order to develop a set of recommendations, we’ve established an ISSI steering committee, task force, and five working teams representing a broad range of campus stakeholders. Detailed information on the charges for each of the working teams, their membership, and the project timeline can be found here. We will continue to inform the campus of progress made and will seek input from community members as the project unfolds. In the meantime, we welcome your suggestions and feedback. Please direct all inquiries and comments to Tony Moreira and Sarah Shin.
We are grateful to Tony Moreira and Sarah Shin for their leadership as co-chairs of the Instructional Space and Scheduling Improvements Task Force and to all members of the task force and the five working teams for their dedication and commitment to this important endeavor.
Provost Philip Rous
