Technical Interview Prep with Career Center is CANCELLED Not enough students are able to attend ISSA'ers,

Unfortunately, we have to cancel our Technical Interview Prep with the Career Center event because we do not have enough students RSVP'ed for a representative to present.

Thank you for understanding.

But, be on the lookout for new events on this page. We have two employers, Exelon and Brooksource coming in the beginning of April.

There will be more information to come after spring break.

Passionate about service and Food Justice? Apply today!
UMBC Retriever Essentials Team is looking for a new CCMA AmeriCorps VISTA for 2019-2020!

Retriever Essentials is a faculty, staff, and student partnership tackling food insecurity in the UMBC community. The program offers three ways for students to receive access to healthy foods and other essential supplies, free of charge: Food Zones, Save a Swipe, and Community Partnerships. Food Zones are six designated locations on campus where students can anonymously pick up a pre-packed bag of non-perishable groceries and toiletries. The intake process is anonymous, but a short demographic based intake survey is required--no financial evidence of need is required. Additionally, there are 3 locations on campus with donation bins--Retriever Essentials is a fully donation-supported food pantry-- where the campus community routinely provides non-perishable groceries for programming. The Save a Swipe program provides free meals to the campus dining hall. Students with meal plans can sign up to donate either 5 or 10 meals to the Save a Swipe “pool.” These meals then become available for use by students who are identified as food insecure by trained Retriever Essentials team members and campus staff, so they can eat on campus for free. Community partnerships act as the final pillar to Retriever Essentials. Retriever Essentials is aware that food insecurity is often the tip of the iceberg in a student’s financial struggle and can be the first of many barriers to academic success. To provide support for “higher needs services,” the UMBC Clinical Social Worker will refer students who are utilizing Retriever Essentials to other campus and/or community resources. All three aspects of Retriever Essentials programming provide a pathway to academic success for the most at-risk UMBC students.

Member Duties : The second year CCMA AmeriCorps VISTA will implement the current working operation manual to continue streamlining all Retriever Essentials programming, while updating it to ensure needs are met in the most efficient way possible. They will oversee volunteer recruitment and coordination for daily operations of the food pantry, which include: donation collection, inventory, bag packing, and bag delivery. The CCMA AmeriCorps VISTA will also be tasked with developing a fundraising plan in order to raise money to support Retriever Essentials’ proposal for a permanent pantry space on campus. They will also work to develop collaborative partnerships with departments and student groups, as well as the Retrievers Action Committee, on and off campus to provide programming and events around food justice, healthy eating on a budget, and much more. Additionally, the CCMA AmeriCorps VISTA will create and implement a student-board to help institutionalize Retriever Essentials.

Posted on behalf of Karina, Mosaic Intern for Hispanic, Latinx, and Indigenous Student Engagement

Dear UMBC Community,

On Friday, March 8, 2019, I created a post regarding International Women's Day, except I used the word "Womyn's." Thanks to a learning moment, initiated by you- UMBC community members who read our Mosaic posts- I now know about the problematic and exclusive history behind this word for trans women. I unknowingly excluded trans women from our International Women's Day celebratory post. Nevertheless, I apologize to all whom I harmed by ignorantly using the word, "womyn." 

For all who are unaware of this word's history, this is a brief overview: On July 1975, the Lesbian Connection magazine covered the Wolf Creek Womyn's Festival, run by the Women's Liberation Front. They are typically white, cis-gender, radical feminists who only welcome "females who survived girlhood." This implies that trans women are excluded from their movement, hence the exclusionary meaning in "womyn." To learn more, I encourage you to read the following posts by everydayfeminism and the Boston Globe that explain the complicated history and more recent iterations of related terms. 

In any case, it is important in diversity and inclusion work to call-in folk when we intentionally or unintentionally cause harm through insensitive language or actions. In this case, I appreciate all who reached out to us to do so. I personally want to thank you for making the brave decision to call-in and for reading. If you have any further questions regarding this post or any of our LGBTQ+ resources and programming, please email us at mosaic@umbc.edu. 

Sincerely,

Karina Aquiahuatl Villagran

Resume writing can be intimidating. You sit in front of a half-filled word doc, and suddenly everything you’ve done and accomplished in your life leaves your memory. You feel like there is no way you could ever, ever fill up this page. But never fear! The UMBC campus offers tons of opportunities to help round out your resume and feel confident in your experience.


Volunteering: There are a bunch of charitable student organizations on campus (see the full list here). Whether you're fighting food waste with donations or designing sustainable engineering projects, you’re sure to find an organization that interests you and possibly relates to your major. Reach out to The Shriver Center for more information about volunteer opportunities!


Extracurriculars: Service organizations aren’t the only useful club you can join. Consider attending meetings for your major’s council, or join a club to pursue a hobby! The commitment and leadership experience will look great on your resume.


Research: UMBC is a research university. This means a lot of the professors on campus have their own research projects in addition to teaching classes. Read up on your professors’ projects, ask them questions, and see if you can assist them in their lab! It's a wonderful experience and you get to work on a cutting edge project in your field.


Projects: Speaking of projects, think about starting your own! Whether you want to recruit a few friends to help you or go it alone, take some time and apply what you’ve been learning to apersonal project. There are massive amounts of resources on campus free for you to use, so start brainstorming ideas and get to it!


On Campus Jobs: Finally, consider getting an on-campus job. Come in to the Career Center to get your resume reviewed and approved, then check out UMBCworks for various on-campus job postings. On-campus jobs are a great opportunity to get involved on campus, and you supervisors will understand your student schedule as well!


Between those five options, you should have plenty of material to work with. Be sure to look at our sample resumes by major to explore how other students had added their experience to their resumes, and as always, feel free to drop by the Career Center any weekday from 2 pm - 4 pm if you have resume questions. Have a relaxing spring break!
