Fellow Retrievers offer 4 pieces of advice to get the most out of your time at UMBC

Now that the first week of classes is underway and you’re starting to find your new classrooms and make friends, you might be wondering how to make the most of this semester (whether it’s your first or last!) Faculty, staff, and students have chimed in to offer some advice for the year ahead, like embracing discomfort to help you grow, improving your financial literacy, and importantly, carving out your own ways to have fun.

Get money smart

Andrea Cipolla, director of financial aid and scholarships, explains how to get money smart while pursuing a degree: “Being financially responsible is an important aspect of the college experience. Make sure you utilize all the resources available to you. File your FASFA, participate in FinancialSmarts Cash Course to improve your financial awareness and skills, and file the Scholarship Retriever application every year.”

Take breaths and take charge

Ann Sofie Clemmensen, associate professor in dance and the Linehan Artist Scholars Program director, highlights the importance of taking a breath, just as much as taking charge: “Do not hesitate to ask your professor, a teaching assistant, academic advisor, or a classmate for help, whether that is asking for clarification on an assignment or advice. In college, you cannot take a passive role, so I encourage every student to take charge of their academic trajectory.” She also wants to remind students that, “Inhalation is the source of inspiration, the exhale is the work that follows… so remember to take in deep breaths. Make sure you carve out time and space to breathe.”

Clemmensen calls attention to a quote by the American filmmaker, David Lynch: “Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you’ve got to go deeper. Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure.” She explains that, “as a student, I encourage you to check in with yourself to see if you are primarily swimming in shallow water. If so, find the courage and motivation to explore further out.”

Use the resources available

Senior dance major, Madison Kayser, offers her resourceful advice as a transfer student to fellow Retrievers: “Really invest time into using resources and events provided to you by the school. I know it seems pointless, but trust me it makes or breaks your experience in college.”

Find the people who motivate you

“Be open minded and explore” is the core of what Tamya Davis, senior psychology and social work double major, wants to remind her fellow students.

“There is a lot to do and experience so trying new things, whether it’s a class or a food, can be really fun. Campus also has a lot happening always so go to different events, different clubs, etc. Never be afraid of being uncomfortable; it just means you have an opportunity to grow.”

Tamya also highlights the importance of having fun; “The people you meet on campus will definitely make your experience better since you are building community and a support system. As cliché as it sounds, it really helps to have people around you to motivate you and share your passion.”

To all HPC users,


Based on guidance provided by the Shared Infrastructure Governance subcommittee on advanced GPU resources, the DoIT Research Computing Team has made some changes to the Slurm model that governs chip-gpu. In this new Slurm model, all GPU machines are available for general use so that resources never sit idle, but machines contributed by funds from specific research groups can opt for dedicated access to those machines through Slurm. Jobs running on contributed machines may be preempted if and when a user from a contributing research group opts for this dedicated access. For jobs run by all other users, these jobs may occasionally be preempted if the job is running on a contributed machine.


In this way, all users have access to all GPU machines, but users belonging to contributing research groups retain dedicated access to the contributed machines.


Users will notice that the chip-gpu Slurm cluster now shows three partitions. The default gpu partition encompasses all GPU machines, the gpu-contrib partition encompasses only machines where jobs may be preempted, and the gpu-general partition encompasses all machines where jobs will not be preempted due to dedicated contributor access. Note that the gpu-contrib partition is meant only to show users which nodes may see jobs preempted due to dedicated contributor access.


The three day preemption rule is unchanged across chip-gpu.


For more information about any of these hardware partitions and how preemption works across the chip HPC cluster, please see the wiki page: https://umbc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/faq/pages/1249509377/chip+Partitions+and+Usage


As always, let us know if you notice any issues or otherwise have questions or concerns by submitting a descriptive help request form found at the following link.

The Muffin Problem

William Gasarch
University of Maryland

10:30-11:30am, Friday Sept 12, 2025
UMBC ITE 325b
Joint work with Erik Metz, Daniel Smolyak, and Jacob Prinz

Let's say you have five muffins and you want to cut them up and give them out to Alice, Bob, and Carol so that they each get 5/3. This is easy, you can cut each one into thirds and give each person five 1/3-pieces.
But then the smallest piece is 1/3. Can we do better? Is there a way to divide five muffins for three people so that the smallest piece is BIGGER than 1/3? What is the BEST you can do? More generally: Given M muffins and P people, how can you divide m muffins so that each person gets M/P and the SMALLEST piece is MAXIMIZED?
Professor Gasarch will discuss various techniques to solve this problem and why this was a good research project.
