Dear POLI 100 Students!

We hope you are having a wonderful summer!! If you are a new first-year or transfer student in POLI 100 this fall, we wanted to let you know about an exciting opportunity to earn additional credit, get some extra support, and get a head start on a great GPA by switching to POLI 100Y!

In the Y section – you will have the chance to connect with other new students as well as a staff instructor and a peer facilitator who will help you navigate your first semester at UMBC and become familiar with the campus. Students in the Y section earn an extra 1-credit towards their overall credit load for the semester by attending a once per week discussion attached to the lecture for POLI 100. This class is intended to be fun, dynamic and extremely informative. POLI 100 meets every Tuesday and Thursday from 10 to 11:15 AM The Y section meets on Wednesday’s 4 to 5:15 PM. Remember, when you make the switch, you are given one extra credit! So why not?

If you are interested in making the switch, please email Professor Anson: iganson@umbc.edu and Emma Sellers: sellers@umbc.edu ASAP and they will help you switch from POLI 100 to POLI 100Y. If you have any questions, please let us know!

Thank you!
