Women’s Center “This or That” Fall 2021 Scouts: Let the Challenge Begin!
“How can I join the Women’s Center?”
Well . . .
Do you hang out in our lounge? Do you come to our events? Do you read our blog or chat with our staff?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then congratulations! You are a part of the Women’s Center.
But we understand the feeling of being a part of something special. Showing your loyalty and commitment to a cause is empowering. Finding home and belonging in a space that means something to you, means something to us.
So, now, you can “join” the Women’s Center by being one of our fearless and loyal Scouts!
The Women’s Center Scouts program began several years ago in the spirit of the Pawnee Goddesses created by our friend Leslie Knope. Maybe you’ve also heard of the Girl Scouts? Radical Monarchs? Or Lumberjanes? Our Scouts program is kind of like that. Nonetheless, there are Women’s Center badges out there waiting to be earned!
Here’s the deal. To become a Women’s Center Scout, participate in our “This or That Scout Challenge!” Each Scout must meet the challenge by completing a set of 4 different challenges outlined by the Women’s Center throughout the fall semester. The challenges include:
- 1. Follow us on social media @womenscenterumbc on Twitter, Instagram, & on myUMBC!
- If you’re already a member and following one of our pages, great! You’re one step closer. After following us, comment/reply to one of our posts…
- 2. Spend time in the Women’s Center!
- Bring a friend to the Women’s Center and give them a tour!
- OR go to one of our discussion group meetings! (Learn more by visiting our myUMBC page and visiting our discussion-based groups’ page)
- 3. Celebrate our 30th Anniversary!
Any UMBC community member who completes the challenge by December 1st gets a Women’s Center T-shirt and a shout-out on our social media pages!
Wear your Women’s Center t-shirt with pride. Jess and Ojus are showcasing this year’s Women’s Center t-shirt!
All UMBC students, faculty, and staff are welcome to participate! Stop by the Women’s Center beginning Monday, September 27th to claim your Scout’s Card and get to work!
For questions, stop by the Women’s Center or email us at womenscenter@umbc.edu.

Gathering Space for Spiritual Well-Being Updates
We recognize that the return to in-person classes and on-campus activities, while navigating Covid compliance, has been difficult. We are excited to welcome students into our new Center for Well-Being (CWB), which was developed to support students' physical, mental and spiritual well-being. But, we also recognize that the transition from the former shared interfaith space to the new shared Gathering Space for Spiritual Well-Being has been challenging. We appreciate the work of students and student organizations who have advocated to ensure that students' concerns regarding the hours and access are being heard.
As a result of ongoing conversations with students about their needs, we can share the following updates regarding access to the Gathering Space:
Gathering Space Reservations:
Reservations for use of the Gathering Space are officially open. Religion and Belief organizations can reserve the space using 25Live. Reservations are approved by i3b and are prioritized for Religion and Beliefs organizations. Please note that the number of people who can use the space at any given time is currently limited by COVID requirements.
Gathering Space Hours:The Gathering Space is now open 8:00 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. daily. Due to safety considerations, students are not able to use the space outside of staffed hours.
Our Next Steps:
We recognize that our students need safe, comfortable, and convenient spaces to gather and to pray. We also know that there is high demand for Religion and Belief students to use the Gathering Space. While we do not yet know what the ideal long-term solution is, we are working with impacted students to help them meet their spiritual needs. Our current work includes:
1. For instances where the Gathering Space is reserved and unavailable, we have identified other campus spaces for students. This includes two spaces on the first floor of the CWB including:
- The Mind Spa; and
- The shared spiritual advising office.
We also have spaces available including:
- The Mosaic Center (Commons 2B23)
- The Women’s Center (Commons 004).
- The Pride Center (UC 201D), and
We plan to share additional information about access to each space soon.
2. At the request of our students, the Division of Student Affairs has committed to making training available for their staff on inclusion of diverse religious communities and religious practices.
3. We know that the work is not yet done. We pledge to continue to work with students and community members to identify issues and to actively work toward solutions.
We thank our community for their commitment to our students and for their partnership in these sometimes challenging conversations. UMBC deeply values the diversity of our students, including the religious diversity represented across our campus. If you have concerns to share or would like to partner in this work, please contact Initiatives for Identity, Inclusion & Belonging (i3b) at i3b@umbc.edu or Dr. Jasmine Lee directly at jaslee@umbc.edu.

REPOST: Leadership Development programs - Fall 2021
Check out and sign-up to Campus Life's leadership programs
This is a repost on behalf of Campus Life. The original post can be found here.
This semester, Campus Life is offering four different leadership programs for UMBC students! These programs are designed for skill-building, experiential learning, campus connections, and overall student development. Whether you're a student looking to get involved, become a leader, refine your skills, or add something extra to your résumé-- check us out! Below you will find a summary of each program, registration information, program dates and hyperlinks to event pages for more information:
The Leadershops series consists of workshops that focus on various student centered leadership-related topics facilitated by Campus Life staff and student leaders. This program aims to contribute to the leadership development and ongoing learning of UMBC undergraduate students.
The following are the fall 2021 Leadershops sessions that are being offered for students to register through myUMBC:
This session is about taking a deeper look into the relationship between womxn and leadership. Attendees will learn about how our socialization affects our views regarding our own identity and our capacity to lead. This session will be done online.
The Author of Your Leadership Story is a leadership workshop that focuses on self-authorship; defining and creating you own individual sense of self, and making yourself as you go on your college journey. This session will be done in-person at The Commons.
Attendees will learn about the leadership process through team-building and capitalizing on difference. This session will be done in-person at The Commons.
This program is about getting more out of, rather than cramming more into, UMBC. This 5 week program helps first year, sophomore, and new transfer students craft a more fulfilling college experience by sharing practical tools and ideas and relating them back to their leadership and involvement plans for UMBC. Topics include exploring your interests, finding your place at UMBC, designing plans for your leadership and involvement experience, and so much more. This seminar incorporates small group discussion, in-class activities, field exercises, and personal reflection.
There are two cohorts available starting the week of October 5th and ending the week of November 2nd, 2021:
- Tuesdays 10:00am – 11:30am
- Oct 5th, Oct 12th, Oct 19th, Oct 26th, Nov 2nd
- In-person meetings at The Commons
True Grit Cohort- Wednesdays 1:00pm – 2:30pm
- Oct 6th, Oct 13th, Oct 20th, Oct 27th, Nov 3rd
- In-person meetings at The Commons
Chip Cohort- Thursdays 3:00pm – 4:30pm
- Oct 7th, Oct 14th, Oct 21st, Oct 28th, Nov 4th
- Online meetings via Webex
To participate, you must be available to attend all of the sessions of your selected section of Leadership Blueprint. Registration closes at 11:59pm on Monday, September 27th, 2021.
Emerging Leaders is a day long experience for students who are interested in developing their leadership capacity and learning more about the Social Change Model (SCM) of Leadership Development. SCM at it’s core, approaches leadership as a purposeful, collaborative, values-based process that results in positive social change.
The Social Change Model sees leadership as purposeful, collaborative, and a values-driven process. Titles or positions are not needed in order to be a leader. Leaders work to improve the groups and communities they are part of. Through this approach, anyone can be a leader, because “leaders” are those who want to make a difference. This kind of collaborative process means that groups must have trust, which requires that group members act in ways that are consistent with their own beliefs and values as well as the group’s goals. Food will be provided at this event.
This program will take place in-person at The Commons 331 on Saturday, October 23rd, 2021 from 10:30am – 3:30pm.
Registration closes on Friday, October 1st at 12:00pm.
The purpose of the Multicultural Leadership Experience (MLE) is to provide a space for students and student leaders who identify with diverse or marginalized backgrounds to discover their own capacity to lead, while also promoting a better understanding of their experiences, issues, and outcomes in navigating their own collegiate careers.
This year's MLE Mini-Series theme is Deconstructing Grit and Greatness! Below you will find the event links to the three sessions we will be offering this semester. All meetings will be done in-person at The Commons. Students are welcome to sign-up for any or all available session(s):
Participants will connect their understanding of themselves to their leadership approach in relation to resiliency.
Participants will connect their understanding of themselves to their leadership approach by engaging in inter-cultural dialogue and utilizing emotional intelligent capacities.
Participants will connect their understanding of our campus community and tools learned in order to collectively co-create a new definition for Inclusive Excellence.
Stay tuned for more leadership development opportunities and events coming your way! Should you have any questions or are interested in receiving leadership development updates from Campus Life, please contact Coordinator for Leadership, Beatriz Gutiérrez-Malagón at bgutierrez@umbc.edu

In which we will then open available seats to all on a first come first serve basis.

Participants will connect their understanding of themselves to their leadership approach in relation to resiliency.
Exploring Empathy and Giving Grace - October 26th, 1pm - 2:15pmThe second session of the mini series will focus on the topic of
