<Title>U.S. Department of Energy 2018 Fusion Energy Sciences Postdoctoral Research Program</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><strong>Now accepting applications for the U.S. Department of Energy 2018 Fusion Energy Sciences Postdoctoral Research Program</strong></p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The purpose of the Fusion Energy Sciences Postdoctoral Research Program is to offer recent doctoral degree recipients the opportunity to conduct research in DOE fusion energy research and development programs. Participants acquire knowledge and experience in areas of fusion energy science, interact with outstanding scientists and engineers, and have access to advanced equipment and facilities. Appointments are made to designated DOE laboratories, universities and contractor fusion energy centers. The mission of the DOE Fusion Energy Sciences is to expand the fundamental understanding of matter at very high temperatures and densities and to build the scientific foundation needed to develop a fusion energy source. Although tremendous scientific progress has been made since the inception of fusion energy research in the United States and internationally, fusion’s research frontiers remain replete with open problems of critical importance.</p>
    <p> </p>

<Title>Message and Invitation for MLK Day</Title>
<Tagline>From Dr. Joby Taylor</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>Just a quick note as we head into this MLK Day weekend.  </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Below are a couple fyi items for the upcoming MLK Day…First a little Shriver connection:  Harris Wofford, who helped Sarge design and launch Peace Corps, was a close friend of Dr. King, and Harris was instrumental in getting MLK Day passed as a national holiday.  He was in the Senate at the time and worked closely with another of my heroes, Rep John Lewis, in the House to get it passed. He considered it part of the larger effort to have service, justice, and peace supported and celebrated in our national calendar and programs.  </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>I’ll be out of town on Monday, but for those who are interested the MLK Parade in Baltimore (down MLK Blvd) is a wonderful local event…a full-on parade with marching bands and dance troops, but with strong community participation and a justice and peace flare to many of the groups that march.  With the important Uprisings for racial justice growing, this parade has the special feel of a celebratory demonstration of pride and resistance.   You just find a spot anywhere along MLK blvd below Eutaw Street. Here’s a <a href="http://www.promotionandarts.org/events-festivals/18th-annual-dr-martin-luther-king-jr-parade" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">link to the website info</a>.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Dr. King came to Baltimore a number of times…One of the biggest events was just after he received the Nobel Prize and as the 1964 Presidential election was approaching.  He spoke at the big Masonic Temple on Eutaw St (you’d recognize it with its large brown domes).  Anyway, below are a couple pics of him in the motorcade that October 1964 day.  I’m sure he’d charge us all to keep up our service and work for racial justice, economic opportunities, and peace!!</div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>[...]</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div>Sending my best to you all this quiet Friday!</div>

<Title>National Day of Healing and UMBC's newly formed TRHT</Title>
<Tagline>Invitation to Participate</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>This is an invitation from Frank Anderson, Assistant Director of the Choice Program and LLC student. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>---</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>On January 16th, the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&amp;U) is calling “on colleges and universities across the country to engage in activities, events, or strategies that promote healing and foster engagement around the issues of racism, bias, inequity, and injustice in our society” for a <a href="http://healourcommunities.org/ndorh-2018/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">National Day of Racial Healing</a>. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>As a new member of AAC&amp;U’s  Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation (TRHT) Campus Center network, UMBC students, faculty, and staff will show their commitment to building community and breaking down racial hierarchies through the spirit of service. Join the initiative by volunteering at one of the many service sites hosting volunteers on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (Monday, Jan. 15), or by hosting your own service event on Jan. 15th or 16th.  Use Baltimore City’s <a href="https://mlkday.baltimorecity.gov/mlk/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service Site</a> to learn about and register for multiple service opportunities being held across the city. Or, reach out to <a href="mailto:afrank3@umbc.edu">afrank3@umbc.edu</a>, to coordinate and learn where members from UMBC are already planning to volunteer. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Share your work by creating a social media post for twitter, facebook, or instagram, and use the hashtag #Bmore4TRHT. Feel free to tag the <a href="https://shrivercenter.umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Shriver Center</a>, <a href="https://my.umbc.edu/groups/themosaic" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">the Mosaic Center</a>, and the <a href="http://choice-staging.umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Choice Program</a>. If your post receives the most likes within one week, lunch for you and four other members of your group is on us! If you have a group larger than 5 participating in service, consider creating multiple teams of five to submit multiple posts. To be considered, let us know that you posted on your platform by sending an email to <a href="mailto:afrank3@umbc.edu">afrank3@umbc.edu</a>.  All posts must be submitted by 1/17 at 12pm. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>UMBC’s Truth, Racial, Healing, and Transformation Campus Center is in its early stage of development, but already students are convening, planning, and doing great work. Student organization representatives from the Charm City Connection, Amnesty International, Hillel, Black Lives Matter, the Black Student Union; as well as representatives from the Choice Program, the Peaceworker Program, Service-Learning, and College JUMP are actively thinking about what Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation means for our campus and for community engagement. This winter, student representatives will attend AAC&amp;U’s “inaugural TRHT Institute in Washington, DC, where TRHT Campus Center teams will come together to discuss and refine their visionary plans to engage and empower campus and community stakeholders to uproot the conscious and unconscious biases and misbeliefs that have exacerbated racial violence and tension in American society.” Stay tuned for more updates as the work progresses, and for opportunities to get involved!</div>

    <div><span>” At age 12, Freeman Hrabowski marched with Martin Luther King. Now he’s president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC), where in his 20+ years as an educator he has work to create an environment that helps underrepresented students, specifically African-American, Latino and low-income learners, get degrees in math and science.” </span></div>
    <div><span> </span></div>
    <div><span>Dr. Freeeman A. Hrabowski, President of UMBC since 1992, is a consultant on science and math education to national agencies, universities, and school systems. He was named by President Obama to chair the President’s Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for African Americans. He also chaired the National Academies’ committee that produced the report, <em>Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation: American’s Science and Technology Talent at the Crosstoads </em>(2011).</span></div>
    <div><span> </span></div>
    <div><span>Named one of the 100 Most Influential People int he World by the TIME (2012) and one of America’s Best Leaders by U.S. News &amp; World Report (2008), he also received TIAA-CREF’s Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for Leadership Excellence (2011), and the Heinz Award (2012) for contributions to improving the “Human Condition.” UMBC has been recognized as a model for inclusive excellence by such publications as U.S. News, which the past eight years has recognized UMBC as a national leader in academic innovation and undergraduate teaching. </span></div>
    
    <div>
    <span>In 2003, the first year of programming for the PROMISE AGEP, a UMBC Public Policy graduate student named Robert Alexander asked if PROMISE could sponsor a “town hall” type of seminar with UMBC’s</span><a href="http://president.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> President, Dr. Freeman Hrabowski</a>. That conversation birthed the concept of an annual seminar for graduate students that would feature the university’s president.<a href="http://www.battelle.org/site/battelle-health-analytics-newsletter/battelle-health-analytics-november-2014/news-you-can-use/battelle-public-health-team-expands-capabilities-with-new-talent" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> Dr. Robert Alexander is now part of the Health &amp; Analytics Business Unit at Battelle</a>, after spending nearly 10 years in his first dream job in Health Communications at the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Similarly, after more than 10 years, Dr. Freeman Hrabowski is the <a href="http://www.ed.gov/edblogs/whieeaa/about-us/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Chair of the U.S. President’s Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for African Americans</a><span>, and has received numerous recognition from media outlets such as TIME, US News &amp; World Report, PBS (“Charlie Rose,” “Tavis Smiley”), and CBS (“60 Minutes.”). The president continues to make time in his schedule to address graduate students. Dr. Hrabowski has been having his spring semester conversation with graduate students at UMBC since 2004. </span>
