    <p>CoLab is an in-person, paid summer internship in narrative-based research for UMBC undergraduates. Held during Summer Session One, student interns will work on interdisciplinary project teams to conduct research, create effective narratives, and develop public-facing final products that support the goals of on and off campus community-engaged organizations and scholars. Open to all majors, this is an excellent opportunity for students in <strong>STEM</strong> fields to learn to tell effective stories and for students in <strong>social science and humanities</strong> fields to gain research and technical skills.</p>
    <p><strong>Participants who successfully complete the internship receive a $3000 stipend and a tuition scholarship for the 3-credit internship course.</strong></p>
    <p><strong>Program Dates</strong><br>CoLab 2025 will be held during Summer Session One and meets in-person from <strong>Monday, June 2nd through Friday, June 27th</strong>. PLEASE NOTE: During these dates, student interns are required to dedicate Monday through Friday from 9:30 am – 4:00 pm to the in-person, on-campus internship. Participants will have preparatory work to complete on their own the week prior to the in-person start date of 6/2, and a final reflective paper to submit the week following the final in-person date of 6/27.</p>

<Title>Autoclaves back in service</Title>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">All,<div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>I am happy to report the campus boiler situation is back to normal. Through the day yesterday, as we corrected one issue, another presented itself. We had three different contractors on site yesterday into the late hours. Temperatures may be on the low side this morning, but shouldn't be uncomfortable. This resolves the current concern.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Hopefully we can make it through the rest of this heating season without this kind of concern. FM has several projects planned this year to help reduce the chances of this situation in the future. Thank you for your patience and support.</div>

    <p>The deadline for the 2025 proposals is <strong>April 18, 2025</strong> (11:59 p.m. ET).<br> <br>For more details about the M.O.S.T. grants, including the Requests for Proposals, visit <a href="https://oer-maryland.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=4ce992e3f6db63c7af9c28afd&amp;id=9526116cfd&amp;e=b54e6989f4" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://www.oer-maryland.org/support-sustain/most-oer-grant-program/</a>.</p>
    <p>In 2023, <a href="https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/instructional-technology/posts/142272" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC's Jill Vasbinder</a>, adjunct faculty, Department of Dance (Dance Appreciation, Dance History), created an OER dance history course as a recipient of the Maryland Open Source Textbook (M.O.S.T.) Faculty OER Grant Program. </p>
    <p>The M.O.S.T. initiative supports efforts to increase faculty access, affordability, and achievement for students at Maryland's postsecondary institutions through incorporating open educational resources into teaching practice.</p>
    <p>From spring 2014 to fall 2023, 210 courses at 29 institutions across Maryland have switched to OER, saving students more than $22 million in cumulative textbook costs. Since spring 2014, M.O.S.T. has impacted more than 160,000 students, who saved an average of $137 per course. </p>
    <p><strong>Note: </strong><span>All institutional grants and faculty grants awarded to UMBC must be routed to the Office of Sponsored Programs prior to submission. Contact your unit's business manager or proposal development staff to discuss your application.</span></p>
    <p><span><em>CAHSS faculty can request assistance from CARAT (Creative Achievement and Research Administration Team): <a href="https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/oer/posts/139417/15848/e8039ffb7cecc321da4f51b872b6602f/web/link?link=https%3A%2F%2Fcarat.umbc.edu%2Frequest-assistance%2F" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://carat.umbc.edu/request-assistance/</a> </em></span></p>
