GAAC Position Statement on GA Collective Bargaining Bill
Analysis of Anticipated Risks & Benefits to GAs of HB 270
Update for all Graduate Assistants:
GAAC has completed an analysis of a proposed bill that would impact GAs at UMBC and other institutions of the University System of Maryland. It is HB 270, the Graduate Assistant Collective Bargaining Fairness Act.
The executive summary of the document is copied below, and the complete document is attached.
Executive Summary
The purpose of the document is to describe the position of the GAAC at UMBC on HB 270, the Graduate Assistant Collective Bargaining Fairness Act, and to provide the reasoning for our position. GAAC arrived at its position on the matter by taking four points into account:
1) Unclear benefits from the contracts that would be negotiated under collective bargaining, an issue which GAAC will investigate further,
2) Additional GA expenses that may arise from passage of the bill,
3) The impact of unionization on existing relationships, and;
4) Political considerations of the proposed bill.
In light of the considerations of the above and through the present document, GAAC advises GAs that it is our opinion that the proposed right to collective bargaining as it is contained in HB 270 does not carry the expectation of benefits for GAs at UMBC in excess of the risks that it would have GAs incur. We therefore do not support the bill moving forward as it is currently drafted.

Giving Day is Here!
Donate to Retriever Essentials to Support Student's Success!
We'd like to take a moment to thank the campus community for the support over the last year!
The Retriever Essentials program has made significant strides in addressing hunger and homeless among our UMBC students. Last semester 100 bags of groceries were packed and delivered, an almost 100% increase from the previous academic year. Save a Swipe collected 280 meals and helped feed 23 students while they were on campus, and this semester students donated 375 meals to the program--we are so grateful for the ability to feed even more students through Save a Swipe this semester.
This success is attributed to you, the UMBC community, as you have stepped up and donated your time, energy and resources.
Yet, as time progresses we are discovering more students in need. Retriever Essentials is currently working toward sustainable methods to support them but we need your help!
You can continue to support these efforts by donating on Giving Day 2019, which is today! Our goal is to raise a significant amount of funds to cover food, toiletries, as well as a fully functional on-campus food pantry.
Please take some time to donate and spread this message. We can only eliminate this problem together. Join the #blackandgoldrush by giving to Retriever Essentials today!

Digital Workflow Promotes More Comunication and Efficiency
OFAS Utilizes DocuSign to Expedite the Financial Aid Process
For months now, newly accepted students have been facing the
important decision of where to attend college. For most, one of the biggest
factors will be how much money they are able to secure in financial aid. In
order to help students make this crucial, time-sensitive decision, the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships (OFAS) at UMBC makes it a top priority to provide students
with all the information and resources they need as soon as possible.
To do so, OFAS has picked up DocuSign, the electronic
signature and digital workflow platform being utilized all throughout UMBC. By
converting numerous key forms to DocuSign, OFAS hopes to expedite and simplify
the process of securing financial aid for both students and staff. This
includes giving students and parents direct, immediate access to the
Scholarship Agreement, Loan Increase, Dependent Verification and other such
forms through a secure email. The signer can then follow useful tooltips that
guide them step by step through the form before sending it on its way with just
a click of the mouse. A process that once took many days can now be completed
in mere hours as DocuSign uses notifications and reminders to encourage rapid
compliance.
OFAS staff worked hard with the Division of
Information Technology
to make these forms as intuitive as possible. For starters, these forms can
pull information from UMBC databases and PeopleSoft to prepopulate numerous
fields before the student even opens the document. Once the student enters the
form, the fields that haven’t been filled out for them will contain restrictions
such as character limits and formatting guides that can prevent the student
from submitting the form with incorrect information. If mistakes do make it
through, OFAS staff can terminate the form and resend it immediately along with
an email clarifying what needs to be fixed. Compliance Specialist Joe Scott says that this flexibility
along with quick communication makes it much easier to process these forms
efficiently while also improving the experience for students and parents.
Associate Director Cory
Ziegenfuss praises the significant reduction of time and paper spent
signing, processing and storing these forms. Staff can assign the resources
they’ve saved using DocuSign on other projects, thus improving the overall
efficiency of the department.
Moving forward, OFAS will begin to develop new
DocuSign projects, including forms for their Work Study program. By continuing
to pursue efficient solutions, OFAS is helping UMBC advance as a modern
university.

Please let us know if you have any concerns.
Thank you for your patience,

Emergency Phone Mail and Call Processing Outage Later today
Beginning over the weekend and continuing into today a number of users and phone numbers may have experienced intermittent phonemail service including both voicemail and call processing boxes. We are experiencing hardware failures in one of the campus phonemail nodes and have been working with our vendor to diagnose the problem.
We will be doing an emergency repair starting today between 3 and 4 that will affect access to part of the voicemail and call processing boxes on campus.
During the repair window the campus should expect some system voicemail outages as we will need to take some systems offline to install new hardware. We anticipate this outage being around 2 hours, after which time the entire system will need to be taken off-line for 20 minutes to re-sync the new hardware. This larger outage will not occur before 5:30pm tonight.
Should you have any further questions or concerns please let me know.
We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause and the short notice. The system has been failing at an alarming rate, and we feel that we have to act now to prevent more severe outages.

Assistant Vice President
