    <div class="html-content">
    <div>
    <div>Meet Jin...</div>
    <div>She is a <a href="http://umbc.edu/undergrad_ed/research/URCAD/BiologyResearchOUE.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Biological Sciences</a> major and a <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/undergrad_ed/research/URA/index.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">URA Scholar.</a> Her future plans is to continue her education in medical school and maybe working in a research lab with biomedical interests.</div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How did you find your mentor for your research, scholarship, or artistic project?</strong></div>
    <div>My mentor taught Intro to Ecology and Evolution my freshmen year. The class was interesting and I wanted a more hands-on experience in STEM, so I looked up his research interests and scheduled meetings to learn more.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?</strong></div>
    <div>I’ve always been fascinated by field biology and ecology; Animal Planet and National Geographic were my favorite childhood TV channels. I also enjoy being out in nature and hiking, so when I heard about the opportunity to study live specimens in their natural habitat, I immediately got excited. I knew this project was a clear fit for me because I would gain experience in handling birds in both laboratory and field settings. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Is this your first independent research/scholarship/artistic project?</strong></div>
    <div>Yes. Before college I had never participated in scientific research before.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Do you get course credit for this work?</strong></div>
    <div>Yes, I get research credit equal to the amount of hours per week I work in the lab.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How much time do you put into it?</strong></div>
    <div>I started this project at the end of my freshman year. I worked summer 2013 when the project first began and this is my second summer on the project. During the academic year I am in the lab from 8-12 hours a week.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How did you hear about the Undergraduate Research Award (URA) program?</strong></div>
    <div>Many researchers at <a href="http://www.umbc.edu/undergrad_ed/research/URCAD/index.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">URCAD</a> were URA scholars. Also one of my undergraduate lab mates was in the program.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Was the application difficult to do?</strong></div>
    <div>Not at all, but it is important to be organized and timely with all the documents and requirements. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>What has been the hardest part about your research?</strong> </div>
    <div>Sometimes research does not go according to plan. Due to studying orioles out in the field, we run into bumps in the road, such as weather or sample size. Also, depending on the time of year, Baltimore and Orchard orioles are hard to find, or are wintering in Central America. Therefore, organization and planning ahead of time is important, but being flexible and being able to adapt to the changing situation is even more crucial.  </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How does your research relate to your work in other classes?</strong></div>
    <div>A lot! I learned about evolutionary history, gel electrophoresis, PCR amplification and much more. It’s really cool because in biology classes I read about these processes, but in the lab I’m actually incorporating all these skills to solve a scientific question. Seeing the real life applications really helps reinforce the concepts you learn in class.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>What else are you involved in on campus?</strong></div>
    <div>I am a <a href="http://meyerhoff.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Meyerhoff Scholar</a> and UBM (Interdisciplinary Training for <a href="http://ubm.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Undergraduates in Biological Sciences and Mathematics</a>) scholar. I also am a member of the Alpha Kappa Delta Phi Sorority on campus and a UMBC Admissions Ambassador. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research?</strong>  </div>
    <div>Find something that truly interests you and don’t be afraid to pursue it. It can be difficult getting into a lab initially (a lot of my emails went unanswered) but, it is possible and rewarding!</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>What are your career goals?</strong></div>
    <div>I plan on applying to medical school and maybe working in a research lab with biomedical interests. </div>
    <div><br></div>

    <p>Do you think we are alone in the universe?</p>
    <p>This image, produced in 1995 by the Hubble Space Telescope, suggests that the visible universe comprises at least ~130 thousand million galaxies. Each of these galaxies contains something in the order of 100 thousand million stars. Recent estimates suggest that there may exist an average of more than one planet per star. </p>
    <p>At least once, this chemistry and physics has given rise to sentient life. What are the chances that it happened more than once? What about other types of life? How could we possibly know?</p>
    <p>INDS430 Astrobiology combines physics, astronomy, biology, chemistry, and geology to ask what science can contribute to such questions. If you want to learn about the discovery of planets orbiting other stars (“exoplanets”), the chemistry of space, the originand evolution of life on Earth, or habitable environments within our solar system this course is for you!</p>

<Title>RHAPSODIES, RHYMES, AND RUNES:</Title>
<Tagline>The poetry of Special Collections, exhibit now through 11/26</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Celebrating selected books, images, pamphlets, and broadsides is the exhibition <em>Rhapsodies, Rhymes, and Runes: The Poetry of Special Collections,</em> now on display in the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Special Collections</a> Reading Room of the Albin O. Kuhn Library &amp; Gallery.  The exhibition will continue through November 26, 2014 (extended!).<br>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The works in the show illustrate some of the various collections in the Special Collections including images from the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/photog.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Photography Collections</a>, science fiction poetry books from the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/books.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Azriel Rosenfeld Science Fiction Research Collection</a>, Beat Generation poetry from the rare book holdings, Maryland poems from the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/books.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Arnold Collection</a>, nineteenth century poetry from the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/books.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Merkle Collection</a>, and contemporary poetry books from the <a href="http://aok.lib.umbc.edu/specoll/books.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Faculty/Staff Collection</a>.</div>

    <span>Insight into the various eras in which the works were produced is evident by the selections.  For example, Allen Ginsberg’s book </span><em>Howl </em><span>is an icon of the Beat Generation, and continues to be a touchstone of the counterculture today.  The book is paired with a portrait photograph of Ginsberg by photographer Elsa Dorfman, noted for her portraits of Beat Generation authors.  An 1884 edition of a book devoted to T</span><em>he Raven</em><span> by Edgar Allen Poe demonstrates how revered Poe was even in 1884  when the book was published.  Famous French illustrator Gustave Doré did the images on pages opposite the pages of the poem.  Other items in the exhibition are broadsides by Dick Higgins, photographs by Lotte Jacobi, books by Paul Lawrence Dunbar, poems by Gertrude Stein, and many others.</span>

<Title>Spring 2015 Class Registration</Title>
<Tagline>Important news about advising for class registration</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Spring 2015 advising and registration will be occurring soon! Before you
    can register, you must be electronically
    cleared by an advisor and receive
    any advance permissions for particular classes, especially INDS classes. <br></span></p>
    <p><span>Contact
     your INDS advisor to arrange an appointment. Many advisors in INDS are 
    not meeting with students until AFTER the Spring 2015 schedule goes live
     on <span><span>Monday, October 27</span></span>. Unsure who your advisor is? Email Ms. Sauter - <a href="mailto:csauter@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">csauter@umbc.edu</a>.</span></p>
    <p><span>You have a pre-de</span><span>termined time to register based on the number of credits you have 
    earned; it does not include the credits you are taking this semester: <a href="http://registrar.umbc.edu/files/2014/10/Spring15Registrationgrid.pdf" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Spring 2015 Registration Appointments</a></span></p>
    <p></p>
    <p><span><span>The Winter
    class schedule is online. Any student can register for winter session 
    without
    advising clearance starting <span><span>Monday, October 27</span></span>. However, you are strongly 
    encouraged to 
    check 
    with your advisor about winter course ideas, especially if you want to take them 
    at another school. The 
    maximum number of credits you can take in Winter is 4.5 credits (1 academic course and a physical education course).</span><br></span></p>
    <p></p>
    
    <p><span>Your To-Do List:</span></p>
    <p><span>- Make an appointment with your INDS advisor.<br></span><span>- Check to see when you can register online. </span><a href="http://registrar.umbc.edu/files/2014/10/Spring15Registrationgrid.pdf" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Spring 2015 Registration Appointments</a><br><span>- Review the winter and spring schedules and prepare your list of course preferences with back-up options.  </span><span>Winter and Spring schedules: <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/go/schedule" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://my.umbc.edu/go/schedule</a><br></span><span>- </span><span><span>Check your degree audit online. When making your course list, c</span>onsider
    your general graduation requirements and things you want to take for your
    major.  </span></p>
    
    <p><span>NOTE:<br></span><span>If you
    have a second major, scholar program, or following a pre-health guideline, make
    arrangements to see an advisor from that department. Pre-Health Students, see this link: </span><a href="http://www.umbc.edu/advising/docs/AdvisingSummaryforPreProfessionalStudents.pdf" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://www.umbc.edu/advising/docs/AdvisingSummaryforPreProfessionalStudents.pdf</a></p>
