2020 Public Policy Camp Postponed
Following UMBC guidance on canceling campus events until at least April 6th, we will be postponing the 2020 Public Policy Camp originally scheduled for April 3rd until a later date. As the situation with COVID-19 and the state's response to it is rapidly changing, we do not yet have a date set for the rescheduled event.
We will keep everyone posted on any decisions made regarding rescheduling.

Prof. Emeritus La Noue's new article in Law & Liberty
Discusses bias response teams and civic debate on campuses
Public Policy Professor Emeritus George La Noue recently published an article in Law & Liberty titled "Bias Response Teams Silence Civic Debate."
Tapping into themes from his new book
Silenced Stages, the article explores the need for civic discourse and debate on campuses nationwide, and the role of the university institution in fostering an exchange of diverse ideas.
Check out the article
here.
Rudy de Leon Dinglas, Public Policy student (pictured 2nd from right), participated in the annual NASPAA-Batten Student Simulation Competition held at George Mason University this weekend. Similar competitions were held simultaneously at different sites throughout the world.
It's a day-long event that allows graduate students in public policy and related fields to employ their knowledge in a realistic simulated situation, honing skills in critical thinking, negotiation, and leadership.
Unanimously nominated by his team to be the City Manager, Rudy led his team through several iterations of the simulation, ultimately drafting a high-level memo and presenting their recommendations during the competition.
Rudy and his team won FIRST PLACE and holds the highest simulation score globally for this year!

Prof. Emeritus Salkever discusses reality of real wage rise
New Policy Brief available now
Public Policy Professor Emeritus David Salkever has released a new policy brief examining the reality of real wage rise over the past few years compared to economic reporting in national media.
"Economic reporting in national media has regularly reported the ongoing rise in wages for workers and the apparent tightening of labor markets. Unfortunately, this simple view is misleading because it ignores overlooks two basic facts about the data which are usually cited. First, it does not adjust for inflation. Second, it omits any consideration of fringe benefits even though they account for about one-third of total compensation. This paper corrects these omissions by looking at trends in total real (i.e., inflation-adjusted) compensation (i.e., wages + fringes) per hour for the period 2014-2019. It shows that when these corrections are made, total real compensation per hour increases steadily over the 2014-16 period and then stops rising in the 2017-19 period. Possible reasons for this marked shift in the trend are briefly discussed."

Publ's Dr. Tormos-Aponte featured on SSN podcast No Jargon
Where climate organizing stands now: justice & equity
What does it take to sustain a global climate movement?
In the latest episode of the Scholars Strategy Network podcast No Jargon, Public Policy/Political Science Postdoctoral Fellow Fernando Tormos Aponte shows how organizers are tackling the issue at all levels - from the floor of the UN to the hurricane devastated neighborhoods of Puerto Rico.
"Last year, climate change took center stage. With presidential candidates releasing bold plans to tackle the issue, massive protests organized by young people across the globe, and ever more dire reports coming out of the United Nations, this issue is getting attention unlike ever before. Dr. Fernando Tormos-Aponte discusses where climate organizing stands now, how some organizers are focusing on justice and equity in their work, and how this is all playing out in Puerto Rico after the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria in 2017"

State commitment to Bikeways honors MPP alumna Kim Lamphier
Governor makes $3.8 mil/year available, for two years.
In December, the office of Governor Hogan announced that his administration will make $3.8 million available per year in the next two years for the Bikeways Network Program, in honor of the Kim Lamphier, a member of Bike Maryland and cycling advocate who passed away in August.
Kim was an M.P.P. alumna of the School of Public Policy at UMBC, and a longtime Bikeways advocate.
“The Bikeways Network Program assures us that Marylanders will have access to a safe, inter-connected bicycle network for generations to come,” said Governor Hogan. “This critical investment further bolsters our transportation network and honors a dedicated advocate in Kim Lamphier.”
The bikeways program provides funding to jurisdictions and organizations for projects that support the goals of the Maryland Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan. The program helps improve connections to transit, work, schools, shopping and other destinations, and supports economic development, environmental stewardship and the quality of life in local communities.
“The bikeways program is a great way to enhance safe infrastructure throughout the state, and the ability to use these resources will make a huge impact,” said MDOT State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) Administrator Greg Slater. “I’m thankful for the unwavering efforts of Kim Lamphier, and the action of Governor Hogan to make this funding available. Kim was a fierce advocate for safe cycling and I can see her smiling face as the state confirms its commitment to this funding.”
