<Title>English Alum Named ASPI Program Associate</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">The English Department would like to offer congratulations to Molly Bradtke, '14, for being named a program associate with the Asia Society Policy Institute (ASPI). During her time here at UMBC, Bradtke graduated summa cum laude in Asian Studies, History, and English with a minor in Chinese. She will continue to use these skills in her role with ASPI as she "assists in coordinating ASPI's operations and events, while providing program and research support for the Institute's projects." Congratulations again to Molly for this notable achievement and for showing the world the types of accomplishments that an English education at UMBC can bring.
