Dr. Renique Kersh, vice president for student affairs, will serve on two panel discussions at national and regional events in March 2024.

At the NASPA Annual Conference, Dr. Kersh will serve on the panel, "Beyond Mentorship: The Transformative Role of Coaching," on March 11. Using case studies and insights, panelists will declassify myths about coaching and its role as a potent, innovative tool for staff empowerment and growth and team dynamics. They'll discuss how to budget for coaching, manage challenges, and measure for success. Dr. Kersh will share insights on how she used coaching in her previous role as vice president at Simmons University, and how she hopes to use it in UMBC's Division of Student Affairs.

 "Beyond Mentorship" will be led by Dr. Adam Cebulski, founder and CEO of transform.forward, a strategy consulting and coaching firm, and also includes panelist Dr. Jose Luis-Riera, vice president for student life at the University of Delaware.

Dr. Kersh is also a panelist for "Defining Womanhood" at the USM Women's Forum Women's History Month webinar on March 13. The panel will discuss characteristics that contribute to their definition of womanhood and share how these characteristics and qualities present themselves in their personal and professional lives. 

Additional panelists for "Defining Womanhood" will include Kelsey Beckett, chief of staff and director of operations in USM's Office of Academic and Student Affairs, and Shantala Thompson, associate director of University of Maryland's LGBTQ+ Equity Center. It is moderated by Dr. Allyson DeMaagd, coordinator for sexuality and gender diversity at Towson University.

The Office for Academic & Pre-Professional Advising has openings available for Summer Orientation Advisors! Advisors meet with incoming students VIRTUALLY during the months of June-August in one-on-one sessions to plan out and register for classes. No previous experience is required, and we will provide all training necessary!


Besides compensation, this is a rare chance for graduate students to gain professional and interpersonal experience. Depending on your field, your time as a student may not open you up to many client-facing interactions, and this is a pathway to gaining that experience. If you are considering ANY career path where importance is placed on the ability to interact with clients in a positive manner, this is a TERRIFIC opportunity to add this valuable experience to your resume. If you are considering a career in academia, meanwhile, advising experience specifically is highly sought-after in faculty openings.

Upon hire, you will be given the opportunity to select which days you are available to advise. Grad students are eligible to be compensated at the rate of $100 per afternoon session and $50 per evening session.

In addition, for the first time ever, all advisors will have the opportunity to earn the Orientation Advisor microcredential through Badges @UMBC, demonstrating to the campus and other institutions their customer service and analytical skills!

We are offering informational sessions for anyone interested or who even just might be interested in finding out about this exciting opportunity to expand their skillsets, make meaningful connections, serve their departments, and get paid!
More info on these can be found on our myUMBC page at https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/advising/events.

To apply, please submit a completed application, together with a resume and cover letter, by Friday, March 15. The application and submission link can both be found here: https://advising.umbc.edu/orientation_upload/

Let us know if you have any questions!

With best regards,
Laszlo Korossy
