Sarah Shin Appointed Associate Provost for Academic Affairs
Dear Members of the UMBC Community,
I am delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Sarah J. Shin as Associate Provost for Academic Affairs effective August 1, 2018.
As Associate Provost for Academic Affairs, Dr. Shin will advance UMBC’s mission by working with the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs in matters related to academic program reviews and new program development. To carry out these responsibilities, Dr. Shin will work collaboratively with academic units and colleges across UMBC. Reporting to the Provost, Dr. Shin will work with the Council of Vice Presidents and Deans to support project management and communications related to the implementation of UMBC’s strategic plan. She will also strengthen the close partnerships between UMBC and University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), focusing on developing effective research collaborations.
For the past two years, Dr. Shin has served as Special Assistant to the Provost for Academic Initiatives. In this role she oversaw a number of special projects (including UMBC’s new faculty awards initiative) and served as co-chair of UMBC’s Advising Task Force. Last year, Dr. Shin was awarded the prestigious American Council on Education Fellowship and served as a fellow in the President’s Office at UMB, where she furthered the development of inter-institutional partnerships between UMBC and UMB, work that she will continue as Associate Provost.
Dr. Shin brings to her new role extensive experience in leadership and shared governance. She has served as president of Faculty Senate and played a significant role in institutional planning and assessment as a member of the Strategic Planning Steering Committee and the Middle States Accreditation Steering Committee. Dr. Shin has served as a member of the Provost’s Executive Committee for the Recruitment and Retention of Under-Represented Minority Faculty since its inception in 2010.
Dr. Shin joined UMBC in 1999 and is a professor of education and the 2017-2020 Presidential Research Professor. She received her Ph.D. in linguistics from the University of Michigan and has established an international reputation for scholarship related to bilingualism, heritage language education, and TESOL teacher preparation.
UMBC is very fortunate to have someone of Dr. Sarah Shin’s impressive experience and talent to serve as Associate Provost for Academic Affairs. Please join me in congratulating Dr. Shin on her new appointment and supporting her in this important endeavor.
Provost Philip Rous

Update on U.S. Supreme Court’s travel ban decision
Dear Members of the UMBC Community,
On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court released a 5-to-4 decision upholding the Trump administration’s entry restrictions on nationals of Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen. The travel ban has been in effect since December 4, 2017, and this new ruling rejects any legal challenges. The decision allows for indefinite restrictions on entry of nationals from designated countries.
We at UMBC remain committed to inclusive excellence and global engagement. Asaffirmed by the University System of Maryland, we will continue to recruit, welcome, and support students, faculty, staff, visiting scholars, and researchers of all national backgrounds. I encourage you to visit the UMBC Diversity and Inclusion website to learn more about our shared commitment to advancing UMBC’s culture of inclusive excellence.
Specific travel restrictions vary by country and are subject to categorical exceptions and case-by-case waivers. If you, a friend, or family member is a national of one of the countries subject to the travel ban, I encourage you to learn more about the listed restrictions, exceptions, and waivers by reading the Presidential Proclamation of September 24, 2017 and reviewing the resources listed at the end of this message.
It is important to note that the decision of the Court does not reflect the recommendations of higher education leaders. The American Council on Education and 32 other higher education associations filed an amicus brief with the Court that outlines how this policy will negatively affect the ability of U.S. colleges and universities to compete for global talent. The Association of Public and Land-grant Universities has stated, “While the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the president has the authority to implement the existing travel ban, the Court did not rule on whether such a policy is wise.”
For more information on the travel ban and the recent court ruling, and how they might impact members of the UMBC community, please see our International Education Services website. Additional guidance can be found through the NAFSA: Association of International Educators and the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
David Di Maria, Associate Vice Provost for International Education

Welcoming a new chief of staff
Dear Members of the UMBC Community,
Please join me in welcoming Candace Dodson-Reed as chief of staff in UMBC’s Office of the President.
Ms. Dodson-Reed has deep connections to our UMBC community, and currently serves as assistant vice president of communications and public affairs. She holds a bachelor’s degree in English from UMBC and master’s degree in executive leadership from Georgetown University- McDonough School of Business.
Prior to returning to UMBC in 2016 to serve in our Office of Institutional Advancement, Ms. Dodson-Reed served as vice president of the Greater Baltimore Committee (2015 – 16) and in key leadership roles in the Howard County government (2007 – 14), including as deputy chief of staff to the county executive. She has been recognized throughout the region for her leadership and service.
As we look forward to welcoming Ms. Dodson-Reed to her new role on July 2, I also want to thank Elyse Ashburn for a phenomenal five years of service as chief of staff.
Ms. Ashburn came to UMBC in 2011 from a career in journalism, and she served in the Office of Institutional Advancement before transitioning to the president’s office. We are so appreciative of her dedication and expertise, through both challenging and exciting moments for our university. UMBC has benefited greatly from her leadership, and we wish her all the best.
President Freeman Hrabowski
