Becoming a Retriever is about starting your academic journey, building community, and getting introduced to UMBC values. As a part of the Retriever community, we value inclusive excellence, storytelling, and building authentic connections. Prioritizing these values requires us to know how to connect across differences, listen deeply, and treat one another with respect – we ALL have a part to play! As a part of Welcome Week, this in-person session will help you explore how you put the "I" in inclusion. Through storytelling, audience engagement, and reflection opportunities you will reflect on your role in ensuring an inclusive environment as you begin your UMBC journey.
If you need accommodations for a disability, please contact Candace Doane at camarti@umbc.edu at least three weeks prior to the start of the event and Welcome, Retrievers! will work to arrange your needed services.
