Want to make a difference this spring break?!? Impact your local community and apply for a ASB trip!!!

Hey UMBC!


What will you be doing this Spring Break 2012?  Come out this Spring to learn, volunteer and give back to your local community!  ASB trips are student-run, week long service engagement trips designed to challenge students and combat civic issues underlying larger societal concerns such as homelessness, intellectual disabilities, animal rights, health care, and the environment.  The ASB trips included for Spring 2012 are the following:
The Arc trip involves students serving the mentally and physically disabled population at the Arc of Carroll County.
The Environmental trip has a focus on sustainable living in urban environments.

The TEAR trip (Through the Eyes of a Refugee) serves the refugee population of Baltimore.

The Animal Advocacy trip explores several aspects of animal rights and humane treatment of animals.

The Day in the Life trip focuses on the homeless population of Baltimore City.
The 2012 trips will begin on Sunday, March 18th and finish on either Thursday, March 22nd or Friday, March 23rd.  The cost of each trip is approximately $75.00 to cover expenses such as food and gas during the trip.  Join us on Facebook for regular updates at "UMBC Alternative Spring Break (ASB)".  For more information, you can also go to the My UMBC Serves group at http://my.umbc.edu/groups/serve.  Click on the documents tab to download the Trip Participant application and other informational documents. 
 
Applications are closing February 6th, so hurry and submit yours! 
Thank you and look forward to hearing from you,
 
ASB Team

The Senate is SGA’s engine for collecting ideas from students and turning them into campus change initiatives.  Members meet weekly (Mondays at 5:30 p.m.) to discuss and develop initiatives, talk with campus administrators and take positions on issues.  But most of the Senate’s work takes place between the weekly meetings.  Members spend time talking with students, representing all undergraduates on university committees, meeting in project working groups and doing the follow-up needed to get initiatives off the ground. 

The Finance Board is the branch of SGA that provides funds to support student organization activities: nearly $200,000 this year.  Most of the Finance Board’s work is done at weekly meetings, where student organization leaders present requests and Finance Board members ask questions and make decisions.  These meetings, which take place Tuesdays starting at 5:30 p.m., can be both long and intense.  Finance Board members have to wrestle with complex issues: applying university policies, striking a balance between supporting amazing events and stretching funds across the entire year, thinking about the precedent-setting impact of their decisions.  But they have a lot of fun too, partly because it’s so interactive and engaging.

If you have any questions about the Senate vacancy, contact Hamza Siddiqui at siddham1@umbc.edu. If you have questions about the Finance Board vacancies, contact Michelle Kuah at mkuah1@umbc.edu.
