    <div class="html-content">
    <div><span>As we prepare for the holidays, we can think of no better embodiment of the spirit of the season than UMBC's remarkable participation in the Maryland Charity Campaign. We are delighted to announce we are approaching our goal of 1,000 participants: to date, we have received nearly 700 individual donations totaling more than $192,000. Great work!</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span><strong>There's still time to give</strong>. The deadline for this year's campaign is <strong><span><span>Friday, December 15</span></span></strong>. If you have not yet had a chance to do so, we encourage you to <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/j1alw/nwtbnbb/z19o8f" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">help support the many nonprofit organizations that serve our surrounding community</a>, and consider a gift of any amount. If you need assistance donating, see our <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/j1alw/nwtbnbb/fuap8f" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">online help guide</a> or contact your unit's MCC Coordinator.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span><div><span><strong>Last chance to win an Amazon Echo</strong></span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>We've <strong>extended the giveaway deadline</strong>, but time is running out for your chance to win an Amazon Echo, a hands-free speaker you control with your voice. Be sure to <strong>make your gift or pledge before the end of the day, <span><span>Monday, December 11</span></span></strong>, to be eligible. Everyone who has contributed to the fall campaign is automatically entered into the drawing.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span><strong>Congratulations to our Fitbit Charge 2 winner</strong></span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>Congratulations to Olivia Dent of the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, the winner of the Fitbit Charge 2 drawing!</span></div>

    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>President Freeman Hrabowski has also generously offered to give away <strong>two sets of Southwest ticket vouchers</strong> to anywhere in the continental United States. <strong>Donate online between now and the end of the day, <span><span>Wednesday, December 13</span></span></strong> and be automatically entered into the drawing. As always, anyone who has already contributed to the fall campaign is eligible to win. Winners will be announced at next week's Holiday Open House event.</span></div>

    <p>Stanford PRISM (Postdoctoral Recruitment Initiative in Sciences and Medicine) is an opportunity for select late-stage graduate students from diverse backgrounds to come to Stanford for a recruitment weekend, interview with potential mentors, and get the inside scoop on postdoctoral training at Stanford. The purpose of this program is to encourage<br>
    those who might not currently consider a postdoctoral position at Stanford to get a first-hand look at whether Stanford might be a good fit for them. Our goal is to match excellent trainees with excellent mentors at Stanford.</p>
    <p>This opportunity is open to all. We encourage those from underrepresented backgrounds, including but not limited to African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, or those with disabilities or from disadvantaged backgrounds, to apply. Applications consist of an application form, a CV, a research statement, a recommendation from your graduate advisor, and the names of up to 6 potential mentors at Stanford. The application closes on <span><span>January 15</span></span>, though we are reviewing early submissions now.</p>
    <p>For more information or to apply, go to <a href="http://postdocs.stanford.edu/PRISM" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://postdocs.stanford.edu/PRISM</a></p>
    <p>Any questions can be directed to Robin Sugiura, <a href="mailto:rsugiura@stanford.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">rsugiura@stanford.edu</a>.</p>
