The 12 hour DH marathon at the 2011 Summer Success Institute started with 11 participants and ended with three triumphant women! Kudos to all who accepted the challenge, and special congratulations to Nikki, Maritza, and Patti, the last three standing!

The theme for the DH was #TeamGetItDone, based on a Twitter hashtag that was created and regularly used by DH members and Ph.D. candidates Sophoria “Nikki” Westmoreland (Mechanical Engineering, UM College Park), and Alexis Williams (Human Development, UM College Park). The energy at the DH at SSI was high and the participants worked hard! Congratulations to all!!

The 9th Annual PROMISE Summer Success Institute (SSI) was held at the Sheraton Town Center Hotel in Columbia, Maryland this past weekend. This year, we featured an outdoor component, hosted by Terra Trax from Arizona.  The team leader, Craig Imler, is an Outward Bound-trained facilitator, who has been leading retreats for PROMISE since 2004.  Many alumni mentioned that their turning points came “at Coolfont.” In past years, we’ve had PROMISE retreats at the Coolfont Conference Center in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, and at the Rocky Gap Conference Center in Cumberland, Maryland. This year, we brought the “Coolfont” and “Rocky Gap” experiences and our facilitator team to the SSI. This was the first year that we combined the SSI and the retreat.

A full list of activities can be found on the SSI’s website:

Information on seminars and workshops for 2011-2012 Dear New Graduate Students,

It was a pleasure to meet so many of you at the Graduate School's orientation on Monday, August 15. We look forward to meeting the rest of you at the evening orientation on Wednesday, August 24.  As promised, we are posting information about the upcoming seminars and workshops for 2011-2012. Here is the link:
http://promisesuccessseminars.wordpress.com/umbc-grad-student-success-seminars/


For starters, if you are a TA or interested in teaching at any point, please register for the Teaching & Learning Workshop that will be held next Friday, August 26.
Breakfast and lunch will be served. 
http://my.umbc.edu/groups/promise/events/7230

As part of that teaching workshop, Dr. Robert Deluty is presenting a lunch seminar on "Life/Work Balance."  You do not have to attend the teaching workshop to attend the lunch seminar, but you must register here: http://my.umbc.edu/groups/promise/events/7354 so that we can order a lunch for you.

Please join us for these professional development seminars. We seek to provide  holistic approaches to graduate education that supplement your disciplinary training with skills that you can use in graduate school and in your careers. More importantly, these workshops provide you with opportunities to build community among fellow graduate students, faculty, and staff.

We wish you well!
