Real People Profiles: Rachael McCauley
We're asking some of the people you might encounter on the UMBC campus, including students, faculty, staff and alumni, to answer a few questions about themselves and their experiences. These are their responses.
Name: Rachael McCauley
Hometown: Pasadena, MD
Major: Psychology, BA
Q: How long have you been at UMBC?
A: This is my third year here!
Q: What is your current title (job or student organization position)?
A: I am the 2016-2017 Service Intern in Student Life as well as an Orientation Peer Advisor during the summer! I am a member of the Student Events Board.
Q: In 12 words or less, what role(s) do you play on campus?
A: Intern, Leader, Peer Advisor. I like getting people involved!
Q: What aspect of your UMBC role(s) do you enjoy most?
A: I love all of my roles at UMBC! My favorite role would be getting people involved. I believe that my internship and the leadership positions I have and have had on campus all involve sharing knowledge about what UMBC has to offer! It is so rewarding to see someone get involved in something that you encouraged them to check out!
Q: What is the most important or memorable thing you learned in college/have learned at UMBC?
A: I have learned throughout my time so far that UMBC is all what you make it! There are so many clubs and organizations that there is bound to be something for everyone, so why not get involved? Find your cup of tea! :)
Q: What is one way you have worked with others to make a positive difference at UMBC or in another community?
A: I feel like I have made the most difference by being involved in Alternative Spring Break (ASB). ASB is a week long service trip during spring break. There are four different trips you can go on during that week! The trip I went on, I went on as a participant during my first spring break and led the trip during my second spring break. We learned about bringing more positivity and humor into hospitals to decrease pain levels and speed up the rate of recovery! Through this ASB trips, I have seen endless smiles from patients, kind words, and even tears of joy while also building strong relationships with other UMBC peers. This is something I will never forget!
Q: Complete this sentence: "I am a big fan of __________"
A: Chips and salsa, popcorn, and spending time with people!!! (And exclamation points!!!!!!!!)
Q: Do you have any UMBC stories, little-known facts about UMBC, favorite spots on campus, or anything else you’d like to share?
A: My favorite favorite FAVORITE spot at UMBC is The Commons! The Commons has tons of food, the Bookstore, a huge game room (with free popcorn!!! I love popcorn! And free things!), Flat Tuesdays, the Sports Zone, the Student Org Space, Student Life offices, and more! But, my favorite place of all in The Commons is sitting at the tables under the row of flags! Not only can you look up at all the flags and be reminded of UMBC's diversity, but it is also the perfect place to meet up with friends, eat, do homework, etc.!

Then & Now, #2: First Day of Classes, 1966 & 2016
by David Hoffman and Craig Berger
Here are two photos taken from the same spot on the first day of classes at UMBC. On September 19, 1966, students arriving for the first day of classes crossed a dirt gully and walked past the Multi-Purpose Building (later known as Gym 1) on their way to the Academic Building (later--and now--known as Biological Sciences). The spot where the photographer stood in 1966 is now on the Commons Terrace. You can see Lecture Hall 1 in both photos.
First day of classes: August 31, 2016.

Welcome to UMBC, the DIY Campus
Each of us can make contributions that matter
by David Hoffman and Craig Berger
This is our time: all of us together, the people of UMBC, last of the campus pioneers.
Every one of us will forever carry the distinction of having arrived before UMBC’s 50th anniversary. The UMBC community has built a legacy of grit and greatness, but the process of creating UMBC has not ended. The paths that we walk among the campus buildings all began with the footsteps of our predecessors across dirt and grass. Now we have the opportunity to make paths of our own, to live and write the story of this remarkable scholarly community, knowing that our contributions and legacies will guide the journeys of generations yet to come.
UMBC has always stood for inclusion, justice, innovation and social hope. The opportunity for each generation of Retrievers is to determine how to make those values our own, and to enact them together in our relationships and our lives. How will we build on the remarkable foundation laid by our predecessors? What kind of community will we become as each of us approaches our teaching, learning, research, activities, and the people around us with curiosity, an open heart, and a sincere desire to change the world for the better?
What we know is that each of us will matter. Every new member of our community has a story to tell, and a contribution to make. To all of you: Welcome!
The two of us were at a student government retreat last week, where one participant described UMBC as a “DIY campus.” That’s exactly right: Here, we do it ourselves, together. And now, as a new year begins, all of us roll up our sleeves and return to the work of building.
We want to introduce a few online resources for people at UMBC who want to make the most of their time here by getting involved as co-creators of their communities, on campus and beyond.
Co-Create UMBC is the blog we write to support UMBC's co-creators, in part by making the UMBC community visible to itself. We'll be sharing profiles of UMBC community members, photos of UMBC from the present and past, involvement and leadership opportunities, and reflections grounded in our own stories and experiences.
BreakingGround is a UMBC initiative linking people, courses, community projects, and research through a philosophy of hopeful, creative action for positive social change.
The Shriver Center is UMBC's center for applied learning, civic engagement, and community-based service.
UMBC Student Life supports student leadership development, campus and community engagement, student organizations and campus events.
Join the UMBC Serves group on MyUMBC for updates from the Shriver Center and UMBC Student Life about opportunities to get involved in service.
The Women's Center advances gender equity from an intersectional feminist perspective through co-curricular programming, support services, and advocacy for marginalized individuals and communities.
