Dear Graduate Students

On March 1, Retriever Courage partners will hold a second information gathering session with Jody Shipper, J.D., and Cherie Scricca, Ed.D. of Grand River Solutions, Inc., our consultant team, from 12 to 1 p.m. in the Proscenium Theatre, Performing Arts and Humanities Building.

This is an opportunity for the UMBC community to share ideas, experiences, and concerns with the consultants in order to inform their work at UMBC. For those who prefer not to share publicly or are unable to attend, you may use this anonymous Google form and your feedback will be shared with Shipper and Scricca.

Based on the information Shipper and Scricca receive, they will help to assess what is working well and where we can learn from other institutions’ best practices and from evidence-based research.

We encourage those who have observed or experienced sexual violence/misconduct to seek support as needed at any time. There are many resources available on campus and in the community that offer confidential medical support, confidential psychological/emotional support, and interim protective measures (e.g., no-contact orders, housing adjustments, academic concerns). For emergency situations, contact campus police via 410-455-5555 or local police via 911.

Thank you

-GSA

Help Hungry Classmates by Donating to Save a Swipe. Hey students! This is the last week to sign up to donate either 5 or 10 meals from your meal plan to Save a Swipe to help a hungry classmate eat while they're on campus.

Do you go home on the weekends? Often sleep through breakfast? Put those unused meals to good use by donating to Save a Swipe!

Last semester we collected 280 meals that became available to distribute to food insecure students--we need more of you to sign up so we can surpass that number and help even more of your peers!

Donating to Save a Swipe is a quick and easy way to lend a helping hand to your peers. Sign up before 2/15/19!

If you struggle to eat while you're on campus, email retrieveressentials@umbc.edu to see if you qualify to receive free meals to True Grits through the Save a Swipe program.

Announcing GA Health Week!

From February 26-28^th, GAAC is sponsoring three events to connect GAs with resources on campus to help us survive and thrive during the challenging graduate school years.

The events are:

A Q&A session about our GA health plan where you can come ask all your questions about our health insurance;

A yoga workshop that is broken up into three sessions of 15 minutes each so we can do them at home; and,

In partnership with Chartwells, a workshop to share with us how to select and prepare food that is rich in nutrients for both mind and body.

The event links to sign up for all events are available at:
https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/gsa – space is limited to ensure each event is successful!

A part of the Graduate Student Association (GSA), GAAC is committed to empowering GAs to take advantage of the many resources that UMBC makes available to us.
