GRIT-X is Back!
Nine faculty and alumni will share their stories of discovery, creativity, collaboration, and perseverance, conveying compelling aspects of UMBC’s impact in the areas of research, scholarship, and creative achievement at UMBC’s fifth annual GRIT-X talks. The GRIT-X talks will take place on Saturday, October 9, at 2 p.m. in the Proscenium Theatre and online.
After the GRIT-X Talks, join us for a community photo with President Hrabowski! Meet us on the stairs in front of the Library and Library Pond to help commemorate the last year of President Hrabowski’s remarkable leadership of UMBC.

We are prioritizing outdoor events that can comfortably accommodate our alumni, students, faculty, and staff. All indoor events will require masks and limit seating to allow for physical distancing. We encourage all community members to bring a mask so they can wear it at outdoor events where distancing may not be possible.
All events, groups, organizations, and centers are open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
