I know many of us are feeling disheartened by the outcome of the US presidential election and are worried about what this means for our future. Join us for a debriefing session on Tuesday, November 12th at 12 PM in Commons 318. Let's come together to navigate this challenging moment.
We’ll also be discussing our own election process and exploring ways to get involved.
Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
Welcome home to our campus community! We hope your semester is progressing well.
We are writing to invite you to join us in a new initiative called UMBC Talks, which aims to enhance the sense of community, vibrancy, and well-being at UMBC. Over the summer, we worked with the UMBC Talks core team to prepare to guide group conversations about our experiences of inclusion and exclusion at UMBC. The hope is that by talking about our experiences, campus community members can reaffirm and deepen our collective commitment to UMBC’s core value of inclusive excellence.
We would love you to participate in a series of two conversations we will co-facilitate. The conversations will take place on November 20 from 2:00 PM to 03:30 PM location to be determined (In-person), and on November 25 from 2 PM to 3 PM in location to be communicated later (In-person). All that will be expected of you is bringing your own stories and perspectives (as well as a pen or pencil and a notebook or paper) and engaging in what we hope will be an enjoyable and informative conversation. The learning we do together will likely inform the strategic planning process UMBC will launch later this year.
Please let us know if you can participate by signing on the Google form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1YmsOuuCElX58Z3wYUKFs1ZjBAu21fSLbul6Ico2954UBecause the second conversation will build on the first; it is important that you be able to participate in the entirety of each of the two conversations.
Please note that we have a limited slot for about ten students; we would appreciate it if you only sign up when you are sure to attend.
Reach out to the undersigned if you have any questions.
