<Title>Update on U.S. Supreme Court&#8217;s travel ban decision</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span>Dear Members of the UMBC Community,<br><br><span><span>On Tuesday</span></span>, the U.S. Supreme Court released a <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/vy04ml" title="5-to-4 decision" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">5-to-4 decision</a> upholding the Trump administration’s entry restrictions on nationals of Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen. The travel ban has been in effect since December 4, 2017, and this new ruling rejects any legal challenges. The decision allows for indefinite restrictions on entry of nationals from designated countries.<br><br>We at UMBC remain committed to inclusive excellence and global engagement. As<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/br14ml" title="affirmed by the University System of Maryland" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">affirmed by the University System of Maryland</a>, we will continue to recruit, welcome, and support students, faculty, staff, visiting scholars, and researchers of all national backgrounds. I encourage you to visit the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/rj24ml" title="Diversity and Inclusion website" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC Diversity and Inclusion website</a> to learn more about our shared commitment to advancing UMBC’s culture of inclusive excellence.<br><br>Specific travel restrictions vary by country and are subject to categorical exceptions and case-by-case waivers. If you, a friend, or family member is a national of one of the countries subject to the travel ban, I encourage you to learn more about the listed restrictions, exceptions, and waivers by reading the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/7b34ml" title="Presidential Proclamation" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Presidential Proclamation</a> of September 24, 2017 and reviewing the resources listed at the end of this message.<br><br>It is important to note that the decision of the Court does not reflect the recommendations of higher education leaders. The American Council on Education and 32 other higher education associations filed an <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/n434ml" title="amicus brief" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">amicus brief</a> with the Court that outlines how this policy will negatively affect the ability of U.S. colleges and universities to compete for global talent. The Association of Public and Land-grant Universities has stated, “While the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the president has the authority to implement the existing travel ban, the Court did not rule on whether such a policy is wise.”<br><br>For more information on the travel ban and the recent court ruling, and how they might impact members of the UMBC community, please see our <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/38liqb/nwtbnbb/3w44ml" title="International Education Services website" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">International Education Services website</a>.

    <p>Named for Meyerhoff Scholars Program director and Assistant Dean of Undergraduate Education <strong>LaMont Toliver</strong>, who passed away in 2012, the scholarship has been supported overwhelmingly by alumni and friends.</p>
    <p>While at UMBC, Davey served as president of the National Society of Black Engineers as well as a teaching assistant and peer advisor while also completing research internships at UC Berkeley and the University of Texas at Austin.</p>
    <p>Davey “embodies many of the qualities LaMont Toliver epitomized: integrity; spirit of service to our community; grit and tenacity of purpose; and, most of all, an unwavering instinct to treat others with compassion and respect,” wrote current Meyerhoff Director <strong>Keith Harmon</strong> in a letter to scholarship donors.</p>
    <p>Davey plans to enter a Ph.D. program at the University of California, Berkeley, in chemical engineering in the fall.</p>
    <p>“I am tremendously grateful to have been selected for this award,” he said. “Mr. Toliver was an incredibly inspirational figure for the Meyerhoff Scholars Program and beyond. I am immensely honored to be likened to him in any measure.”</p>
