Multicultural Leadership Cohort Experience: MCLE 101
"This spring, the Multicultural Leadership Experience is open for the first time to GRADUATE students. Please take advantage of this special opportunity.
Original post can be found here.
Registration is open for the Multicultural Leadership COHORT Experience, a collaborative effort between Campus Life and the Initiatives for Identity, Inclusion & Belonging (i3b), to be held during the Spring 2022 semester. The purpose of all MLE programs is to provide a space for students and student leaders who identify within diverse or marginalized backgrounds to discover their own capacity to lead, while also promoting a better understanding of their experiences, issues, strengths, and outcomes in navigating their own collegiate careers. Unlike the mini-series held in the fall, the spring cohort experience is offered SOLELY for selected applicants (up to 20 undergraduate and graduate students). All locations for meeting dates and times will be announced via email to selected participants and invited through Google Calendar.
This spring, we will be exploring the concept of Deconstructing Grit and Greatness. We will do this in a leadership learning cohort by:
Enhancing participants' leader identity and leadership capacity using an identity-conscious lens and student development theories;
Increasing participants’ awareness of their personal abilities, identity development, and intersections that shape their story through authenticity, self-reflection, and cultural humility;
Exploring the role they play in developing relationships while building intra/intercultural connections;
And capitalizing on their unique differences, specifically in relation to their racial, ethnic, national, and other salient identity social groups
The first session will cover a brief overview of the program. However, please note that all session topics will be only disclosed to the cohort. For all session dates and times please click here. Additionally, as we continue to monitor all COVID related procedures, the first session will be held virtually followed by in-person sessions. This is subject to change according to university guidelines.
Registration link: tinyurl.com/mle2022. Deadline for applying is Monday, February 14, 2022 at 11:59pm EST. For questions or more information, contact:
Beatriz Gutiérrez-Malagón, Coordinator for Leadership a bgutierrez@umbc.edu
Carlos Turcios '15, '17 M.A., Assistant Director with Initiatives for Identity, Inclusion & Belonging at carlos6@umbc.edu

What have you lost due to COVID? What are you grieving? Who can you share your grief with?
The Pandemic Grief Processing Group aims to make space for honoring and acknowledging the losses students, staff, and faculty within the UMBC community have experienced in these last 2 years of the COVID-19 pandemic. This discussion-based program will explore the different kinds of grief and loss people may be experiencing individually and as a society, giving language and space for each of the participants to express their personal stories.
Our intention for this group is to create a space for processing, connection, healing, and collective growth. We will collaborate in the creation of a community grief ritual together even as we are still moving through our grief in different ways.
PGPG will be run as a 3-week program. The group will meet for a 90-minute session, once a week, for three consecutive weeks. The first two sessions will be online on Fridays, February 18th and 25th, 2:00-3:30 and then our hope is that the group will conclude with a final in-person session on Friday, March 4th, 2:00-3:30 in the Women’s Center. To indicate your comfort with meeting in person, please see the commitment form below.
If you are interested in joining, please fill out the commitment form here. We will send out iGoogle Calendar Invitations with links to the closed group meetings closer to the start date.
Note: To ensure that we have time for everyone to share their stories, we will be limiting the number of participants to 12.
This group is open to all students and faculty/staff of the UMBC community.
*Positionality statement: The facilitators of this group are senior social work students in their final practicum. We are not professional grief experts but we have experience in facilitating supportive groups as well as individualized counseling with peers. We hope to hold space for everyone and that, together, as a community, we can learn from and support each other.
We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals, to engage fully. To request an accommodation or for inquiries about accessibility, please contact Women's Center staff at womencenter@umbc.edu or 410-455-2714. LLC Assistant Professor, Ramon Goings, Ed.D., and LLC alumni

Existential Literacy talk by Dr. David Balosa--LLC Cohort 14
on February 4th at 11 a.m. EST (virtual)
David Balosa, Ph.D., is participating in an on-line workshop in advance of the publication of the volume, Critical Pedagogy for Modern Language Education. This book will be published by Bloomsbury later in 2022.
His talk and book chapter is entitled, Existential Literacy: Promoting the Culture of the Dignity of all Languages in Modern Language Classrooms
This chapter explains how critical pedagogy in modern languages classrooms should encapsulate the approach that Dr. Balosa calls existential literacy to achieve "transformational interculturality" and "global intercultural citizenship." It explores his experience in teaching French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Swahili (K-16) in Philadelphia and Delaware State University and his experience as a member of the School District of Philadelphia equity and diversity team and Teacher Leader of the Junior Academy in South Philadelphia High School.
He defines existential literacy as an approach to pedagogical practices from which to derive inclusive attitudes, competence, and open-mindedness in the acquisition of, appreciation and respect for, and interest in linguistic, cultural, and sociopolitical discursive diversity. These objectives embody the commitment to transformational interculturality and global intercultural citizenship. Transformational interculturality refers to models of leadership and sociopolitical movements dedicated to rights and privileges rooted in human rights and responsibilities for inclusiveness, equity, and diversity for the common good. Global intercultural citizenship entails more humane relationships among different groups of people. It refers to symbolic capital from which derives an inclusive mindset in politics or the management of relationships among different groups of people across the world.
