Welcome new DoIT Team Members, Leonard ‘Lenny’ Frieson III and Mary Arsenault

Hello UMBC community,

We are thrilled to welcome two members to the New Media Studio in the Division of Information Technology: Leonard ‘Lenny’ Frieson III and Mary Arsenault.

Lenny Frieson

Lenny joined us on February 24th as a Video Production Specialist reporting to Dustin Roddy. Lenny will be responsible for producing, filming, and editing campus video projects in addition to various roles in campus live streams and sports broadcast events.

Lenny graduated from Towson University in the Spring of 2023 with a Bachelor of Science in Electronic Media & Film, with a concentration in Digital Production. He has worked at his father's Church as a multimedia leader, manning the A/V systems since he was 15. During his student years and after graduation, Lenny’s professional career included work as a Videographer, Photographer, and Editor with several studios in the DMV area, including Ross Video Production, Legacy Studios, Shinee Studios, and Hoop Brothers.

Lenny also has done work in sports broadcasting for CBS, ABC, and ESPN as a photographer, parabolic mic, and camera operator. In addition, Lenny has worked as a freelancer with Johns Hopkins, Morgan State, Towson University, CAA and CIAA basketball tournaments, and the Premiere Lacrosse League.

Fun Fact: Lenny is a huge fan of the Ravens, Manchester United, Orioles, Bulls, Wizards, and Bryson Dechambeau, in that order. He is also a huge Marvel fan, despite his favorite superhero being Batman.

We’re excited to see Lenny apply his experience and education to grow our New Media Studio and continue serving the campus and its students' educational mission.

For those faculty that contributed to last year's purchase of the CPU and GPU hardware that is now available from the chip cluster, please keep an eye out for emails from our business office on chargeback details.

Importantly, the final quote for the GPU hardware saw some machine types either increase or decrease in price, in the 3%-5% range. As a result, charges confirmed via email may be slightly higher or lower than the charges we generate. We'll be sending more detailed messages to those of you affected by these price differences soon.

Thank you for your patience as we've navigated many changes over the last few months.

Roy Prouty

System Administrator, UMBC HPCF

For our Spring 2025 Humanities Forum, the Dresher Center for the Humanities presents

Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum

When: Monday, March 10th, 4-5:30pm

Where: AOK Library Gallery

Peabody and Emmy-award winning journalist Antonia Hylton will read from and discuss her recent book, Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum. Madness chronicles the 93-year history of Crownsville State Hospital, one of the last segregated asylums with surviving records and a campus that still stands to this day in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. Hylton traces the legacy of slavery to the treatment of Black people’s bodies and minds in our current mental healthcare system.

In conversation with Drew Holladay, Assistant Professor of English, UMBC

This event will be live-streamed via the UMBC YouTube channel.

Antonia Hylton is a Peabody and Emmy-award winning journalist at NBC News reporting on politics and civil rights, and the co-host of the hit podcast Southlake. She graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University, where she received prizes for her investigative research on race, mass incarceration and the history of psychiatry.

Co-sponsored by the Critical Disability Studies Minor; the Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Public Health; and the Office of Accessibility and Disability Services.
