    <div class="html-content">While staying at a hotel during a conference in 2007, Kimberly Moffitt came across a key card with a phrase on it that caught her eye: “Walk in like you own the place.” The words struck her so much that she requested another key card with the same phrase on it to take home to her two children. Seven years later, Moffitt, an associate professor of American studies, points to the phrase as inspiration for founding a charter school for boys in Baltimore and used it as the basis for her talk at TEDxUMBC.<br><br>

<Title>Kate Drabinski: Field Tripping, Getting Historic</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">I have one of those sweet day jobs where I don’t generally have to be anywhere on Fridays. I schedule all the stuff of life outside the workplace in that day—dentist appointments, therapy, trips to the aquarium to avoid the stickiness of that place on the weekends—but sometimes that pesky work thing shoves itself in my Friday face. That’s what happened a couple Fridays ago when I had to be at the Maryland Historical Society by 8:30 a.m.—ungodly, if you ask me.</div>
