Prove It!
In my mind, four things distinguish UMBC from any other campus under the sun: our diversity; our trailblazing spirit of discovery and entrepreneurship; our confidence and pride in students' genius and creativity; and a collaborative spirit which empowers all of us as contributors to our campus community. I love this place largely because of the ways we work together to give life to those four themes.
SGA's Prove It! competition is a phenomenal example of how the themes converge. SGA is putting up $36,000 so undergraduate students can make their mark on UMBC and enhance campus life. Students have until December 31st to submit a proposal: a specific idea about how to make UMBC even better, and a plan for making it happen. The best and most feasible plans will be put to a vote of the student body next spring. The top three vote recipients will win implementation grants of up to $10,000 apiece and cash prizes of $2,000 apiece. Will the winners be new campus events? Services? Physical alterations of campus space? Ongoing creative projects? Maybe all of the above? Your submissions and your votes will determine the answers. SGA is working closely with campus officials to ensure that the winning plans will be put into action.
Find out more about Prove It! here. And plan to attend the Prove It! information session on Wednesday, November 16th at 7:30 p.m. in Lecture Hall 4.
Stuck for an idea? Use these (one-line concepts submitted to fill in the blank in the phrase "Think You Can _____?") to spark your creativity. Got quick questions about how this works? Here are some answers.
Join the Prove It! Facebook group here. Follow Prove It! on Twitter: @UMBCProveIt

Farewell UMBC Underground
Four years ago, the campus was buzzing about a new blog called UMBC Underground. Styling itself as an alternative to The Retriever Weekly, UU featured posts about campus news, problems, events and opportunities. Many posts took the form of questions, like how students felt about the choice of a Quadmania headliner or the imposition of a new student fee.
Part of the excitement about UMBC Underground was that its authors kept their identities a secret. That, and the fact that people posting comments could choose to remain anonymous, made the enterprise feel a little edgy and rebellious. Many of the comments (especially the anonymous ones) were predictably nasty, whiny, self-absorbed and cowardly. I'm sure a lot of UU's abundant traffic came from people drawn to the display of verbal acrimony and conflict. But UU's anonymous founders' posts were nearly always positive, tolerant and supportive of campus life. The founder known as 'Treeveins' set a philosophical tone with ruminations on campus involvement and the inner experience of being a student. There were times when I disagreed strongly with UU's posts or editorial judgments, but I always appreciated the founders' good intentions (about which I had some insight, having discussed them with Treeveins from time to time), cooperative spirit, and willingness to experiment and take risks to help students make UMBC their own. I started Co-Create UMBC in the same semester UU launched, and took plenty of inspiration from UU's style and content.
UU's stream of posts had diminished to a trickle over the past couple of years, but only over the weekend did I discover that the web domain is no longer active. UU appears to have been done in by a combination of the founders graduating and the availability of the MyUMBC discussion forums, where the spectacle of inflammatory posts provoking other users into ill-considered contests of verbal cruelty is all the more mesmerizing for the fact that users cannot hide behind the shield of anonymity.
I'm glad UU had its run, and appreciate the founders' aspirations and contributions. And I wonder whether the niche UU's founders tried to occupy--provoking community exploration, and reflection about campus life and students' experiences--is still open to thoughtful students. MyUMBC provides a wonderful venue, a virtual gathering space. Some of the posts there, and also on Facebook and Twitter, provide invitations of exactly the sort UU had in mind. But I suspect there is even more students could do to draw each other into a reflective space where they can help each other take ownership of our campus community.

Why I Like the Sondheim Statue
The statue of Walter Sondheim, Jr. on UMBC's main academic corridor is as modest as the man was reputed to be. Even with the extra couple of inches provided by the bronze base it's not particularly tall, as he was not. His pose is not regal: his left hand rests in his pocket, his right points to a nearby bench, and the expression on his face is open and patient rather than commanding.
Academic Row Exterior Sondheim Statue in USA
The benches around the statue are monuments to Sondheim's humility and grace. The quotations inscribed there are plain and direct, and they address simple virtues like honesty and respect for others. If you knew nothing else of the man, you might assume that Sondheim was a beloved teacher or a longtime volunteer.
He was those things, but he also was a businessman, organizer and political leader. As chair of the school board, he led the desegregation of Baltimore's schools; as chair of two urban renewal organizations, he led redevelopment projects that transformed its landscape. This was a mover and a shaker, the kind of person sometimes memorialized in monuments far larger than life (see: Washington, Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, Washington, DC).
The Sondheim statue and benches, by contrast, are all about being in the thick of life. The humility reflected in bronze and granite is an invitation. The scene says: An ordinary human being with a strong heart and respect for all can make a meaningful difference in this world. What a wonderful message, and how appropriate for UMBC.

Real People Profiles: Evan Tyler Ponter
I’m 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: Evan Tyler Ponter
Hometown: Born in Cookeville, TN but raised mostly in Pomfret, MD.
Q: How long have you been at UMBC?
A: 3 full years, this semester is the start of my senior year.
Q: What is your current title (job or student organization position)?
A: President of the Student Events Board, aka (seb).
Q: In 12 words or less, what role(s) do you play on campus?
A: I organize student leaders who execute phenomenal programs that enhance student life.
Q: What aspect of your UMBC role(s) do you enjoy most?
A: I have found that this role allows for tremendous growth in how you handle people- from my fellow (seb)'ers, to my advisors in OSL, to other organizations on campus, to Commons staff (especially Ops), to the general student body. I used to be a shy kid. But being involved in a student organization beckons you to come out of your shell and make connections with the people around you. I have learned to manage the personalities of a group of students who are all trying to accomplish the same goal even though they may see different routes to get there. Channeling their energy into one strategic plan for the organization is definitely a challenge! But the success of achieving that goal pays for itself at the end of a program when you can hear students leaving and saying, "Wow, this was the best night I've had all semester!" Improving students' experience at UMBC is what (seb) strives for.
Working with professional staff in OSL is a blessing. They support me and my decisions fully and completely, yet they are not afraid to call me out when something is questionable. With their help, I always feel confident that I'm moving in the right direction. Other student organization leaders are also wonderful to have as part of my support system. These peers experience a lot of what I'm going through since we are all leading student organizations and trying to improve the experience students receive while attending UMBC. Commons Operations staff are angels- most (seb) programs would fail miserably without them. I am very grateful that they always pull through for us even when we change things up at the last minute. Interacting with the student body provides me a chance to work on my public speaking skills and get people excited before or during a program.
Q: What is the most important or memorable thing you learned in college/have learned at UMBC?
A: Use the resources around you while you still can! College is the time to explore different opportunities and make things happen that you never had the chance to do before. UMBC is a safety net where you can pursue a genuine interest that you are passionate about without having to be held personally or financially responsible for its success. No idea is too big or too crazy to be explored. I've had the chance to create some amazing programs- from Guitar Hero and Rock Band tournaments where winners receive concert tickets, to a Fall Brawl: Battle of the Bands where 18 UMBC bands competed during a 7-hour, two stage spectacle in the Commons. Don't limit yourself. There are plenty of resources and interested people on campus to bring any vision you have to life. You just have to find the right resources and groups of people to make it happen.
Q: Complete this sentence: "I am a big fan of __________"
A: Live Music. The entire experience is fascinating to me and always has so much potential. The bands, the crowds, the ever-evolving technology that goes into bringing a performance to life- it's something that can never be repeated. Each concert is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for everyone involved. I'm hoping to be part of the music business in a way that focuses on that experience and making it the best it can be. Bringing great bands to amazing spaces that are set up with the latest technology will attract a crowd that wants to experience that show. My Interdisciplinary Studies degree in Music Entrepreneurship is preparing me to create a business model centered around that idea.
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: Ever seen those colorfully painted wooden sculptures in the Commons sporting (seb) posters? I had the idea to create them when I was a Programmer for (seb) last year and starting working on sketches and getting materials immediately. Now, all seven are complete and being used to promote (seb) programs. Just another example of using resources around you to create your vision, especially the 8-ft tall wooden-rendition of a rubber chicken! (for comedy events, get it? It's a joke in itself.) I wanted to give a shout-out to Jerome Graham and Bryan Wilkinson for helping me tremendously with those. The giant speech bubbles behind Donald Glover were also creations of mine, with help from Jason Palumbo and Joey McElroyAlso, a shout out to Jennifer Dress (a wonderful resource in OSL) and everyone involved in (seb).
BONUS VIDEO QUESTION: What else would you like to share? Ask yourself a question and answer it.
The moment itself is no longer in my memory, but its marker persists. Probably the ceremony took place at a party the night before the first of us left for college. Four close friends, about to leap away from each other into the unknown, searched for a way to signify our bond, which we hoped would endure across the months and miles. I'm pretty sure it was Barak who had the inspiration to pull a dollar bill from his wallet, rip it neatly into four pieces, and solemnly hand a shred to each of us, to keep forever.
The following summer, when I was working in a laminating shop (long story), I heat-sealed my piece of the dollar in plastic.
Some years after that, the three of us who were still regularly in touch (but not often in the same city) were walking back to our cars after dinner together at El Coyote restaurant in Los Angeles. Barak asked us to pull the dollar fragments out of our wallets. He and I produced ours, but our friend David discovered his was missing. He was upset; it seemed to affirm our growing distance. I think I was the one who pulled out another dollar, ripped it into thirds and gave each of my friends a piece. In that moment the gesture was nothing more than a Band-Aid on a gaping wound. But I confirmed recently that 20 years later, each of us still has our piece of the El Coyote dollar.
Mine lives in a special wooden box along with the laminated fragment from the first dollar and other intrinsically worthless personal treasures. Here is the sign that used to hang on the wall outside my office when I was an unhappy lawyer: "Mr. Hoffman," so perfectly capturing my reduction during those years to a creature of the firm. Now, in my treasure box, it's a symbol of adversity overcome. Here is the brochure, obtained at my UCLA freshman orientation session, which guided me into the student government (and, indirectly, to everything that has flowed from that involvement, including my career), a symbol of how everyday choices can change everything. Here is the temporary library card I obtained when I was 3 years old, featuring what might well have been my first-ever attempt to write my own name. Now the card stands for the continuity of some of my interests and personality across decades.
I love helping people to recognize their power, and one of the most wonderful sources of power available to all of us is our capacity to make meaning. You, too, can transform ordinary objects, ordinary moments, ordinary encounters into wellsprings of inspiration and significance sending ripples across space and time.
No doubt you've already done so. I hope you'll share how in a comment.
