<Title>Real People Profiles: Sabah Ghulamali</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[

    <div><div>
    <span><em>I’m    asking some of the people you might   encounter on the       UMBC    campus, including students, faculty and staff,  to  answer a   few        questions about themselves and their experiences.  These are    their        responses.</em><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>

    <br>
    <span><strong>Hometown:</strong> Germantown, MD<strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q: How long have you been at UMBC?</strong> </span><br>
    <br>
    <span>A:  </span><span><span>This is the start of my fourth year</span><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q:  What is your current title (job or student organization position)?</strong> </span><br>
    <br>
    <span>A:  </span><span><span>Cultural Peer and Women's Collective Treasurer</span></span><span><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q: In 12 words   or less, what       role(s) do you play on campus?</strong> </span><br>
    <br>
    <span>A: </span><span><span> I am a student advocate, Mosaic/Interfaith Center representative, advice-giver, feminist, practical joker.</span></span><span><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q:  What aspect of your UMBC role(s) do you enjoy most?</strong> </span><br>
    <br>
    <span>A: </span><span><span>I love meeting new people, getting students mobilized and empowered to make a difference at UMBC, and throwing awesome events.</span></span><span><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q:  What is the   most    important    or memorable thing you learned in college/have learned  at     UMBC?</strong> </span>
    </div></div>
    <div>
    <br>
    <span>A:  </span><span><span>Not to be dismissive of an opinion just because I  disagree. Everyone has their reasons, and I find it impossible to debate  without an understanding of the opposing viewpoint.  On a different  note -- network, network, network.</span><strong> </strong></span><br>
    <br>
    <span><strong>Q:  Complete this sentence:  “I am a big fan of __________”</strong> </span><br>
    <br>
    <span>A: </span><span><span>Making a schedule and then breaking it.  Weekend  trips.  Anthony Bourdain.  Thrift stores. Undergraduate research.  Dancing. The Mosaic Center. Airplanes (I'm still convinced I will be a  flight attendant one day). </span></span><br>
    <br>
    <div>
    <span><span> </span></span><span><strong>Q:     Do you have any UMBC    stories, little-known facts about UMBC,         favorite spots on campus,    or anything else you’d like to share?</strong> </span>
    </div>
    <div>
    <br>
    </div>
    <span>A:  </span><span><span>I would just like to say how awesome UMBC  art/music/theatre performances are. It is incredibly fun to go to plays  from the Theatre department, see student musicians/a cappella/musical  theatre groups, or view art displays in AOK Library for example.</span></span><br>
    <br>
    <span></span><span><span>Also, take advantage of the fact that UMBC requires  such a variety of classes to graduate. I've found that taking classes  from history, philosophy, american studies, political science, and more  has been really enriching. I even ended up loving french! And if you  can't find a class on what you would like to learn, it is totally  possible to do an independent study. I am completing one this semester  on feminist and post-colonial literary theory.  </span></span><span><span><br>
