Musical Prodigies: Why We Love Them, and Why We Should StopAuthor: Daniel Gallagher
Audiences are more appreciative of musical prodigies based on their young ages, rather than on their musical complexity and nuance. Gallagher explains the history of the modern idea of the prodigy and concludes that we are over-emphasizing young talent instead of giving prodigies room to come into their own.

Examining Debussy and the notion of impressionism, Sharo concludes that reducing an entire composer's output to a single stylistic term does a disservice to not only that composer, but to audiences, "minor" pieces that are ignored or forgotten, and "minor" composers who are not easily categorized.

Did you write anything particularly interesting last semester for a class or independent project? Consider presenting your work at the Pi Sigma Alpha undergraduate research conference in political science!
For the past nine years at UMBC, students in political science have presented their work as posters to peers, faculty, and staff at a yearly conference sponsored by Pi Sigma Alpha, the national honors society for political science. The conference is an excellent opportunity to share ideas with the political science community and to get valuable feedback for your work.
If selected, Pi Sigma Alpha will cover the expenses of printing your posters and lunch will be provided. Please email Carolyn Forestiere (forestie@umbc.edu) with a brief abstract of your work if interested byMarch 1. Students will be notified shortly thereafter and a brief workshop on how to present a poster will be offered.

Hello!
As advising coordinator, I am here to ensure that if you are a POLI major or minor, that you have a political science professor assigned to you as your adviser. Note that you should have an adviser for each of your majors/minors and meet with them at least once a semester. They fulfill an essential role, namely, among other things, giving you clearance for your class enrollment!
If you do not have a POLI adviser, or do not know who they are, I'm the one to ask! I can also do my best to answer general academic or campus resource questions, or point you in the right direction. I am a masters student in the school of public policy, and I am also happy to talk about graduate school or career plans. Don't hesitate to reach out.
POLITICAL SCIENCE ADVISING COORDINATOR SPRING 2018 HOURS:
Mondays/Wednesdays 11am-3pm
Tuesdays/Thursdays 2pm-5pm
*If you cannot make these hours, reach me at polisciadvising@umbc.edu. I will be checking my e-mail Monday-Thursday
**Note that your actual adviser's office hours may be different. E-mail them or myself to acquire their office hours.

A renowned Chinese poet-painter, Lo Ch'ing creates art simultaneously rooted in
tradition and expressive of contemporary sensibility. His paintings
describe a path between the strong currents of his own short past, the
millennia-old past of the Chinese empire, and the demands of today’s
postindustrial, consumer-driven and individualist global citizen.
The exhibition, curated by University of Maryland professor Jason Kuo,
comprises 30 artworks and represents the artist’s first show in the
United States in ten years. Representing four decades of the artistic
activity, the selection of works ranges from smaller, poetic
compositions of the late 1960s to monumental, post-modern landscapes of
2015. Working in the millennia-old tradition of Chinese ink art, Lo Ch'ing's
paintings include familiar landscape forms of the genre, such as
mountains, clouds and river scenes, but he updates this hallowed
pictorial language with his own idiosyncratic vocabulary — one that
includes an array of modern symbols like airplanes, icons, asphalt and
skyscrapers — and aerial views impossible in ancient times.
Generous support for the exhibition catalog Lo Ch'img: A Contemporary Chinese Poet Painter comes from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative
Office in the United States (TECRO).
The
Center Art, Design and Visual Art is located in UMBC's Fine Arts
Building and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.
Admission to the exhibition is free.
