Romy has been a member of the UMBC community for the past 14.5 years, during which she earned her B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. here. As a graduate student, she was a key strategist for the BreakingGround initiative, served as UMBC’s lead organizer for Imagining America’s 2015 conference in Baltimore, and earned the Jessica Soto Perez Award for her stellar contributions to other graduate students’ academic and professional pursuits. She joined the Office of Student Life team as coordinator for student organizations in 2016, and while in that position transformed the Alternative Spring Break (ASB) program by developing components that emphasized deep learning about Baltimore and options for sustained engagement in Baltimore’s civic life.
Since 2018, as assistant and then associate director of the Center for Democracy and Civic Life, Romy has been directly involved in creating and leading every aspect of the Center’s work. Her signature contributions have included conceiving and co-designing ConnectionCorps (an initiative through which the Center for Democracy and Civic Life prepares students to facilitate its community programs and workshops in ways that empower and connect participants), the Dinner with Friends program series (simultaneous, guided small-group conversations in which participants engage in civil dialogue about contentious issues affecting people at UMBC), and Together Beyond (restorative, guided conversations in the aftermath of potentially traumatic national events). Romy also has been an energetic and creative partner in developing and teaching two innovative Honors College courses: HONR 200 - Talking Democracy, on overcoming barriers to democratic communication; and HONR 300 - Be Your Best Self in Real Life, on thriving and initiating change within institutions.
Romy has become a respected national leader in higher education’s civic learning and democratic engagement movement. Last month in Minneapolis, the American Democracy Project presented her with its first-ever Spirit of Democracy Award, which recognizes exemplary staff leadership.
Her colleagues in the Center for Democracy and Civic Life are going to miss her very much, but we will be cheering for Romy in her new role and looking for opportunities to collaborate.

Please join us in congratulating Romy Hübler on her appointment as the new director of Civic Engagement and Social Responsibility at Towson University. Romy’s last day at UMBC will be this Friday,...

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is offering an optional webinar for applicants on July 26, 2022 from 1 p.m - 2:30 p.m. ET.
Registration is required.
Proposals are due September 7, 2022.
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is committed to building a Culture of Health that provides everyone in America a fair and just opportunity for health and well-being. Racial disparities in COVID-19 infections and deaths have brought to the forefront well-documented and longstanding inequities in family and community wealth and opportunity. Upending centuries of policy decisions that perpetuated racism will require significant transformation to elevate the voices of communities historically excluded from decision-making.
RWJF funds research that can move policy toward the goals of dismantling structural racism and promoting health equity. In 2015, RWJF launched the Policies for Action (P4A) research program to support public and private-sector policy research that builds understanding on how economic, social, and health policies advance health and racial equity.
Any systematic approach to eliminating the racial wealth gap requires transformative policies focused on bolstering long-term family and community income streams and building and sustaining generational family and community wealth in Black, Indigenous, Latino, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and other communities of color. The goal of this P4A call for proposals is to build the evidence base investigating how national, state, local, or private-sector policies and practices can reduce growing levels of racial inequality in wealth, and significantly improve the financial wellbeing and economic security of families and communities that have been systematically subject to disinvestment, and therefore are unable to enjoy a fair and just opportunity to be healthy.

Maryland Board of Elections Places Ballot Box in The Commons
Voting will be easier than ever for members of the UMBC community for the 2022 gubernatorial election. For the first time, the Maryland Board of Elections has placed an official ballot dropoff box on the UMBC campus. Members of the UMBC community registered to vote anywhere in Maryland can cast their mail ballots for the primary and general elections by placing completed ballots in the box, which is located next to the Campus Information Center (CIC) in the lobby of The Commons. The Maryland Board of Elections will collect ballots from the box daily through Election Day (July 19 for the primary election). The box will return in late September or early October for the general election.
The placement of the ballot dropoff box on campus reflects UMBC’s record of strong engagement in previous elections, and is the result of advocacy and planning by the Center for Democracy and Civic Life, Commons Operations, the Office of Institutional Advancement, the Student Government Association, and other campus leaders. We are grateful to the Maryland Board of Elections for extending this convenience to members of our community.
