The program takes place in Baltimore to foster sustainable connections and lay the groundwork for long-term collective civic action. The dates for ASB 2020 are March 15th - 20th.

As an ASB participant, you will develop skills that can help you reflect on experiences; share, solicit, and make use of stories; build community; work in partnerships; and analyze approaches to problem-solving to identify what works, and what else is possible. 100% of the participants in ASB 2019 said they had learned skills they could use in their own communities, including UMBC, and left them confident that they can make a difference.

ASB 2020 group experiences will focus on:
  • Nutritional Equity (led by Tristen Griffith and Faith Davis)
  • Housing Access and Homefulness (led by Ashley Amundsen and Chandler Jenkins)
  • Creative Expression and Community Empowerment (led by Joshua Gray and Hager Younes)
You can find information, including in-depth topic descriptions, and access the application here. The application is due November 25, 2019 by 11:59 p.m.

For more information, contact Pat Michael, Community Civic Engagement Intern, Center for Democracy and Civic Life: pmich1@umbc.edu.

Nearly 2,500 faculty and staff members’ accounts are now being protected by Duo, and the numbers continue to rise. Whether you’ve been using Duo for years, or you’re a new user, it’s nice to be reminded of a few best practices for using Duo. These tips, and a number of other topics, can be found on our Duo FAQs.

Reduce how much you’re prompted by Duo - Use Remember me for 30 days

Do you like the security you get by using Duo, but don’t want to use the second-factor step every time you log in? Simple. Just check the “Remember me for 30 days” checkbox on the Duo authentication screen.

NOTE: Only use this option on computers you control and trust. For example, your office computer or home computer. Do not use this option on public computers.

Don’t type or call - Use Push notifications

By far, the easiest way to use Duo is with a push notification to your smartphone. More than likely you have your smartphone with you. Simply press “send push” on the Duo authentication screen and acknowledge the push notification on your device.

Protect yourself from being locked out - Register multiple devices

In the event you don't have your standard authentication device with you, like your smartphone, be sure to register additional devices such as your desk or home phone.
