Image: Dustin Roddy presents Matt Baker with the DoIT Gritty Award dog trophy. The trophy states, “The Gritty Award, for outstanding contributions to the Division of Information Technology at UMBC”.
Since Matt joined the New Media Studio, he has excelled not only in video production, encompassing camera operation, editing, directing, and producing live events, but has also become an integral part of the campus. Dustin Roddy, New Media Studio Manager, shares, “I have never had someone embrace UMBC so quickly (despite holding a BA in Electronic Media and Film from Towson). This shows in his attention to detail and customer service skills.”
Regardless of whether he is working with staff, faculty, coaches, or students, Matt takes significant pride in his work, and it is evident in the consistently high-quality results he delivers.
Matt was crucial this Fall semester, with over 140 live events and video projects produced by the New Media Studio.
Thank you, Matt, for your unwavering dedication and commitment to high-quality production, teamwork, and collaboration!

Accelerated Programs Info Session – Spring 2025
Help us spread the word to our students!
All,
I have a second request for your help spreading the word about our Accelerated Programs Information Session happening Weds., 4/9 at 12:00pm.
This is a virtual event for qualified undergraduate students who are interested in fast-tracking their degrees by completing graduate credits while completing their bachelor’s. This means graduating with a graduate certificate or master’s in less time and at a reduced cost while gaining practical knowledge and skills.
If you are someone who has the access to update your department's monitors and screens, can we have your help adding the event graphic to your rotation?
Thanks as always for your help and continued partnership!

Meet Ada Glaser
INDS Spring 2025 Graduate Highlight Series
B.A.: Child Centered Community Development
Any other major, minor, certificate, and/or honors that will be on your graduation records
Degree Mentors
-
Jayshree Jani, Associate Professor for UMBC School Social Work
-
Jennifer Mata-McMahon, UMBC Associate Professor-Early Childhood Education
- Eric Brown, Assistant Teaching Professor, Individualized Study
Why did you choose to major in INDS?
When pursuing a second area of concentration for my social work major, I found there was so much I was interested in that did not fit cleanly into one other major. Classes from education, sociology, psychology, American studies, and public affairs all interested me. INDS provided me an opportunity to explore my passions of social justice, child development, and education from a variety of perspectives through building my own degree plan and pulling from many different disciplines.
What are your plans for after graduation, and how do you see using your INDS degree?
After graduation, I plan to pursue a Masters of Social Work (MSW) with a child and family or early childhood mental health concentration with the goal of becoming licensed clinical social work. I would love to work within a school or early learning center to make a difference for both the children I am working with and their families, as well as the larger community. The wide scope of knowledge I have gained from my INDS degree will help me approach large social issues from multiple perspectives and be able to contribute to change from both micro and macro levels.
Were you involved in any clubs or organizations? Did you hold any leadership positions? URCAD? URA? Off-campus internships? On-campus research experiences?
Getting involved at UMBC has expanded my experiences so much, allowing me to try new things and meet all sorts of amazing people!
Ada was the 2024 recipient of the Zainab Damji Memorial Scholarship. Congrats Ada!
