Dr. Deluty's 48th book is here! "Worthy of Consideration"
Graduate School Associate Dean, Professor, Poet, & Writer
The Graduate School at UMBC congratulates our Associate Dean, Dr. Robert Deluty on the publication of his 48th book! The book, "Worthy of Consideration," is a collection of short poems. In addition to being our Associate Dean, Dr. Deluty is a member of the faculty in the Department of Psychology. Dr. Deluty is a beloved member of the graduate community; he connects regularly with graduate students through the "Poetry and Sushi" readings sponsored by UMBC's Graduate Students Association, and other programs. Some of these programs include his participation as the featured speaker at annual PROMISE seminars such as the "Understanding Feelings of Stress" coffee hour held each December, and the "Life/Work Balance" lunch held each August.
A review of Worthy of Consideration:
“Robert Deluty's poetry encourages us to re-examine our ordinary waking moments, to see them as precious--indeed, as profoundly ‘worthy of consideration.’ He magnifies seemingly mundane sounds, sights, tastes, and feelings, allowing us to breathe anew. With mere fragments
of lines, he gently prods us to change for the better by not taking our lives, and those of others,
for granted.”

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Deluty!
PROMISE: Maryland's AGEP and the Graduate Student Development Unit at UMBC congratulate our Associate Dean, Dr. Robert Deluty on the publication of his 46th book. Dr. Deluty, also Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology, leads the annual graduate student seminars on work/life balance, and addressing graduate students' feelings of stress. Deluty has as one of his research interests, "the creative processes and products of poetry and psychotherapy."
____________
Robert Deluty, associate dean of the Graduate School, has published a new volume of poetry, “Human Recordings.” In his review, Ronald Pies writes: “The title of Robert Deluty’s wonderful new collection was inspired by the late rock band musician, Layne Staley, who struggled with depression and drug addiction throughout his adult life. But, like Staley’s music, Deluty’s moving poems are highly-condensed recordings of ‘being human,’ in all its tragic and comic tonalities. From the ‘taxidermist’s son/ wooing the depressed daughter/ of the mortician’ to the ‘Arby’s manager/ fuming that his sons opened/ a vegan bistro,’ Deluty regales us with the sweet, sad music of life, in tonalities that Layne Staley would have appreciated. This is a collection to be savored.”
“Human Recordings,” as well as all of Deluty’s other books, may be purchased at the UMBC Bookstore.

"Gifts in Disguise" - A new book by Dr. Robert Deluty
Dr. Deluty is the Associate Dean of the Graduate School
We salute our Associate Dean of the Graduate School, Dr. Robert Deluty on the publication of his 45th book: "Gifts in Disguise."
Dr. Deluty's book of short poems allows readers to reflect on the many stories that are artfully told in a few words. The opening poem, "Nineteen Years Later," describes the kindness of a college counselor, and the impact that a simple act of compassion had on a young woman's life. When you read page 40, you'll smile, recognizing that the thesaurus is not extinct. An inward chuckle may also arise as you read page 73 and remember Leo Tolstoy's novel, "War and Peace."
Enjoy your own copy of one of Dr. Deluty's books. They are available for a nominal cost in our own UMBC bookstore.

7) DELUTY: Paraphrased quote from Dr. Deluty: "If you get a 'C' or less and have to take a course again, don't view it as a failure, view it as an opportunity to master the material."
8) PROF-IT: Save the dates for other upcoming PROF-it seminars: Fridays from 12 noon to 2:00 PM on October 5, November 2, and December 7 in Commons 329.

Renetta Tull
