    <div class="html-content">Want to spend less time this semester during finals searching for a quiet place to study in the busy Library? Enter the Library's contest through Monday, December 4, and you could win your very own VIP Study Room to use from December 7-20! No more squeezing onto the end of a table, or worse - the floor. You'll have a room to call your own with it's own door, desk, and maybe some additional treats. <br><br>To enter, check out the poster by the elevators on the 1st floor of the Library. Follow one of the clues and locate a contest flyer - then just share a photo of the flyer and tag @umbclibrary and #vipstudyspace. We'll notify the winners on December 6. <br>

<Title>How to Apply to URCAD and Write a Research Abstract</Title>
<Tagline>The Inimitable Dr. H Breaks it Down For You TODAY</Tagline>

    <p><strong>TODAY AT NOON, SHERMAN 113 WITH DR. APRIL HOUSEHOLDER, </strong>Director of Undergraduate Research and Nationally Competitive Scholarships</p>
    <p><strong><br></strong></p>
    <p><strong>Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement Day (URCAD)</strong> features research, scholarship, and creative work carried out by UMBC undergraduates. Student work is shared through oral presentations, posters, artistic exhibits, performances, and film. Over 300 presenters participate annually. Researchers work with faculty mentors on independent research, or research that is part of the mentor’s on-going projects.  They are from all disciplines, and can be working on a thesis, capstone project, part of a scholars or honors program, or they can be unaffiliated.</p>
    <p>This campus-wide celebration of achievement affirms UMBC’s commitment to the twin goals of research and a distinctive undergraduate experience.</p>
    <p>All current undergraduates who have conducted research, scholarship or creative work in the last year may apply to present their results at URCAD. Mentors, fellow students, friends, family members, high school teachers and students, graduate school recruiters, and the general public are invited to attend.</p>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span><br>The Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation awards 55-65 scholarships of up to $30,000 to exceptional college juniors who want to work in government, education, the nonprofit sector, or the public interest/advocacy sector. Truman Scholars are agents for change and have an extensive background in community service; a commitment to a career in government or the nonprofit and advocacy sectors; communication skills and a high probability of becoming a “change agent”; and a strong academic record with likely acceptance to the graduate school of the candidate’s choice. </span><div><span><br></span></div>
    <div>
    <span>There is an internal selection process for this award, and anyone who is interested in applying must contact Dr. April Householder, Director of Undergraduate Research and Nationally Competitive Scholarships at <a href="mailto:aprilh@umbc.edu">aprilh@umbc.edu</a> in order to be considered for institutional nomination. <br></span><div><span><br></span></div>
