Temporary Off Campus Housing for Summer 2026 Looking because I won't be able to stay on campus that time Dear all,
I am a senior international undergrad majoring in mechanical engineering. This summer I am willing to work with my mechanical engineering professor, hence I am looking for temporary accomodations that time. My official move out date of campus is May 20th and the move in for Fall 2026 is August 21st. Therefore it is best to have a housing where I can commute through UMBC bus shuttle during that period of time. Hence I highly appreciate if you can arrange safe and reliable accommodations throughout the break. Thanks.

Regards

To all chip users,

We have a few maintenance activities to keep our storage servers secure and reliable. During business hours (EST) on Tuesday March 31st, we're going to patch the ada-rstor server and perform an upgrade on the RRStor Ceph storage cluster. During this time, ada-rstor storage (volumes under /umbc/ada) will be briefly unavailable, and users of the rrstor ceph storage server (volumes under /umbc/rs) may see short interruptions or slower performance.

No immediate action is required today. As we get closer, please plan critical work with this time frame in mind and make sure jobs can handle brief storage pauses.

Separately, the server hosting ada-rstor is aging hardware that is no longer warranty, so we will need to migrate data off its storage volumes to newer, supported systems in the near future.

As always, remember to submit any issues you have here: https://rtforms.umbc.edu/rt_authenticated/doit/DoIT-support.php?auto=Research%20Computing

And check out our documentation here: https://umbc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/faq/pages/1082589207/UMBC+HPCF+-+chip

Nominate an Accessibility Trailblazer Today!

Do you know a faculty member or academic department that goes above and beyond to make learning more accessible and inclusive for all students? Now is the time to recognize them!

The UMBC Accessibility Trailblazer Awards celebrate individuals and departments who are pioneers in creating accessible course materials, inclusive content, and teaching practices grounded in Universal Design for Learning (UDL). These trailblazers help ensure that every student has the opportunity to learn and succeed.

We especially encourage student nominations, but nominations from colleagues are also welcome.

Awardees will be recognized by the Department of Accessibility & Disability Services (ADS), which houses the Office of Student Disability Services (SDS). They will receive certificates of recognition, be acknowledged by their Deans and senior leadership, and be celebrated with the UMBC student community. Finally, they will also be featured on the ADS bulletin board and highlighted in our quarterly newsletter to recognize their commitment to accessibility and inclusive teaching practices.

Take a moment to recognize someone who is making a meaningful impact on accessibility at UMBC!

Questions? Contact the ADS office at (410) 455-2459 or disability@umbc.edu.
