UMBC is considering making changes to the academic calendar, including some that would take effect as early as Fall 2025. We want to learn your opinions of those proposed changes. To reduce the number of surveys we ask you to fill out, we also want to ask a couple of questions about your financial wellbeing.

The GSA President will present the results regarding the proposed academic calendar changes at the Faculty Senate meeting on Tue 10 Dec 2024.

This survey is completely anonymous. We will not be able to tell who responded and/or who didn't unless you identify yourself in one or more of the comments.

The survey can be completed in 10 minutes.

You can access the survey at https://forms.gle/RwLy5n82YQbxX28d7

Please contact gsapresident@umbc.edu with any questions or concerns.

Thank you for your participation.

Alternative Spring Break (ASB) is a five-day immersive learning experience in which UMBC undergraduate and graduate students explore the systemic and human dimensions of complex social issues in Baltimore. Participants build connections with local leaders, organizations, and policy makers and develop a sophisticated understanding of available resources and challenges. The program helps participants identify pathways to long-term community engagement.

This year’s ASB program will take place from Monday, March 17 – Friday, March 21, 2025. ASB participants spend much of the program in small groups (co-led by undergraduate students trained by the Center for Democracy and Civic Life) focused on exploring a specific topic in depth. ASB 2025 groups will focus on:

Health and Patient Care Equity (co-led by Vunnathi Ankem and Natalia Cooper)
Environmental Justice and Sustainability (co-led by Bianca Canales and Tanzila Malik)
Reforming Juvenile Justice (co-led by Aanayah Trotman and Nyssa Vilchis)

As part of your application, you will get to identify the topic groups that interest you most.

Learn more about ASB 2025 and access the application. The application is due by Friday, December 20, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EST.

The Center for Democracy and Civic Life hosts ASB. If you have questions about ASB, contact Ricky Blissett at rblissett@umbc.edu.

The application for the Center for Democracy and Civic Life’s other immersive program, the STRiVE leadership for public purpose program, also is open now (due November 8).

Sisterhood is a new WOC coalition formed to help

Sisterhood is a new WOC coalition that has been established for the purpose of providing a safe space and open discussion forum for all women of color on the UMBC campus. It is based in grassroots activism and aims to promote social justice and equity for women of color.

To learn more you can find them here, and read their post below:

Hello everyone!

Here at sisterhood, we are all about safety. Unfortunately when someone is a victim to an unfortunate event on campus, they might not know who to turn to. So, in partnering with the Office of Equity and Civil Rights, we want to send out resources to any victims that come forward to us.

This is a safe space and we not only want to emphasize that but also support any victims that need it. We are here for you all and we hope that you trust us to be there to support you in this journey of life.

If you would like to report anything to us, you can fill out the form that is fully anonymous and fully confidential to get on campus resources emailed to you. We hope this helps <3
