Apply for Alternative Spring Break (ASB) 2024 (Waitlist)
UMBC students exploring systemic change in Baltimore
Alternative Spring Break (ASB) is a five-day immersive learning experience in which UMBC undergraduate and graduate students explore the systemic and human dimensions of complex social issues in Baltimore. Participants build connections with local leaders, organizations, and policy makers and develop a sophisticated understanding of available resources and challenges. The program helps participants identify pathways to long-term community engagement.
This year’s ASB program will take place from Monday, March 18 - Friday, March 22, 2024. ASB participants spend much of the program in small groups (co-led by undergraduate students trained by the Center for Democracy and Civic Life) focused on exploring a specific topic in depth. ASB 2024 groups will focus on:
- Educational Justice for LGBT+ Youth (co-led by Madison Brown and Musa Jafri)
- Immigrant Health Justice (co-led by Simone Acquaye and Kina Soberano)
- Improving Life After Prison (co-led by Aidan Hunter and Alberta Ndille)
To apply for a waitlist spot in ASB 2024, complete the application.The Center for Democracy and Civic Life hosts ASB. More information on this program is available below.

ASB: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When is Alternative Spring Break (ASB)?
ASB takes place in March during UMBC’s Spring Break. ASB 2024 will take place from Monday, March 18 - Friday, March 22, 2024. To participate, you must be available to attend the entire program.
Where does ASB take place?
We are planning to host ASB 2024 in-person at the Holiday Inn Express in Linthicum Heights, Maryland. Participants will stay in hotel rooms. Some activities will happen on site, while others will happen in community spaces in Baltimore with partners from local and regional organizations. Round trip bus transportation will be provided.
How much does it cost to participate in ASB?
UMBC covers most of the cost of each participant’s attendance. However, each participant pays a $125, non-refundable contribution toward the program’s cost. Financial assistance is available. If you are selected to participate in ASB 2024, we will send you a form that includes an opportunity to request financial aid. We do not want the $125 contribution to be a barrier to anyone’s participation.
Do I have to be an “involved” student to participate in ASB?
Absolutely not. ASB will be helpful to any student regardless of previous involvement or leadership experience. No prior experience is necessary. We are looking for a diverse group of students committed to developing their social change and civic engagement skills and applying them to create positive change in the local community.
Can I participate in ASB again if I have participated before?
Yes, we welcome previous ASB participants to participate again. However, first-time applicants will be prioritized in the application review process.
How do I apply to participate in ASB?
Applications to participate in ASB 2024 are due on Monday, November 20, 2023 by 11:59 p.m. EST. All undergraduate and graduate students are invited to apply.

STRiVE: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When is STRiVE?
STRiVE takes place in January during UMBC’s Winter Break. STRiVE 2024 will take place from Monday, January 8 - Friday, January 12, 2024. To participate, you must be available to attend the entire program.
Where does STRiVE take place?
We are planning to host STRiVE 2024 in-person at Skycroft Conference Center in Middletown, Maryland (round trip bus transportation from the UMBC campus will be provided to participants). Participants will stay in motel-style rooms and all activities will be held on site.
How much does it cost to participate in STRiVE?
UMBC covers most of the cost of each participant’s attendance. However, each participant pays a $125, non-refundable contribution toward the program’s cost. Financial assistance is available. If you are selected to participate in STRiVE 2024, we will send you a form that includes an opportunity to request financial aid. We do not want the $125 contribution to be a barrier to anyone’s participation.
Do I have to be an “involved” student to participate in STRiVE?
Absolutely not. STRiVE will be helpful to any student regardless of previous involvement or leadership experience. No prior experience or involvement is necessary. We are looking for a diverse group of students committed to developing their leadership skills and applying them to create positive change in the campus community.
Can I participate in STRiVE if I will be taking a winter class?
STRiVE's activities are scheduled from about 8:30 a.m. - 10 p.m. each day. You will not be able to attend class meetings or complete coursework during these times. If your class will include synchronous meetings during the week of STRiVE, it will not be possible for you participate in the program. If your class will take place asynchronously, it may be possible for you to participate. However, we strongly encourage participants taking asynchronous classes to complete their coursework during the weeks before or after STRiVE, as time to do coursework will be very limited and WiFi at the program site can be unreliable.
Can I participate in STRiVE again if I have participated before?
You can only participate in STRiVE once. So all participants in STRiVE 2024 will be participating for the first time.
How do I apply to participate in STRiVE?
Applications to participate in STRiVE 2024 are due on Monday, November 6, 2023 by 11:59 p.m. EST. All undergraduate students are invited to apply. Complete the application by clicking this link.

Intern of the Week: Sanjida Shehrin
Check out Sanjida's internship!
Name: Sanjida Shehrin
Pronouns: she/her
Semester of Internship: Summer 2023
Major: Computer Science
Current Class Level: Junior
This semester I completed a(n)...: Internship
Internship, Co-op, or Research Site (Company/Organization Name): BGE
Location of the Organization (City, State): Baltimore, MD
Title of position: Contract Management Intern
Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities:
During my internship, I had the privilege of working at BGE. My role primarily involved collaborating, attending team meetings, networking, and learning different skills. I was continuously learning and developing new skills related to data management and Power BI, which were essential for my role. A very important part of my internship was networking. BGE organized events which allowed me to meet people ranging from those who work in the field to the company CEO. Building professional relationships within the organization allowed me to learn from experienced colleagues and mentors.
Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?
The process of obtaining my position was fairly smooth. I first learned about the opportunity at a scholars event held in October. During the event, I had the chance to connect with representatives from the organization and gain a deeper understanding of the role and its requirements. Intrigued by the position, I decided to submit my resume shortly after the event. In January, I received a positive response, and I was invited to participate in a phone interview. This interview served as an important step in the selection process, allowing me to discuss my qualifications, experiences, and enthusiasm for the position with the hiring team.
What resources did you use to find your current experience?
Student Organizations/Scholar Groups
What have you enjoyed the most about your position and organization?
During my internship at BGE, I had the opportunity to work with the contract management group, and what I enjoyed most about my position and the organization was the chance to gain hands-on experience in the corporate field. It allowed me to apply the theoretical knowledge I had acquired in my studies to real-world situations. Additionally, I appreciated the supportive and collaborative environment at BGE, where I had the chance to learn from experienced professionals who were always willing to mentor and guide me. Overall, the combination of practical experience and the positive work culture made my time at BGE both enjoyable and educational.
How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?
During my internship at BGE, I believe I made a meaningful impact through my involvement in organizing the safety expo. This event played a crucial role in promoting safety awareness and best practices within the organization. By coordinating various aspects of the expo, such as planning the schedule, arranging informative sessions, and ensuring the event ran smoothly, I helped create an environment where employees and contractors could learn and engage with safety topics.
What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?
The advice I would give another student who is seeking an internship is to utilize their personal and professional networks to seek out potential internship leads. Attend career fairs, join relevant student organizations, and connect with professionals on platforms like LinkedIn.
Please provide a short reflection or quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / working with the Career Center.
My internship not only allowed me to apply classroom knowledge to the real world but also opened doors to new experiences and connections. Earning internship credit was a tangible validation of my growth, and the guidance from the Career Center was invaluable in shaping my career path.

New Media Studio Moves to ENGR 023
Temporary relocation due to Sherman Hall renovation
Over the summer, DoIT's New Media Studio relocated from Sherman 204 to Engineering 023, just three doors down from DoIT's AV Services.
"I've already seen more DoIT colleagues in the past few months than I've seen since I started working for DoIT," jokes Dustin Roddy, manager of the Studio since 2019, who also works with Video Production Specialist Matt Baker.
The temporary, 18-month move is due to the Sherman Hall renovation, which will include renovated space for the Studio, and consolidation on the second floor. No more climbing up the spiral staircase from the main two-story Studio floor (which will remain) to staff offices on the third floor.
In addition to relocating, this year the Studio is also supporting Athletics to expand its slate of ESPN live broadcasts from 30+ men's and women's home basketball games to an additional 25+ games including all men's and women's soccer and lacrosse, and volleyball. The Studio will also continue its video production support for campus events such as Commencement, HR service awards, key lectures and dissemination support for grants and contracts.
For more information, visit newmediastudio.umbc.edu or send email to newmediastudio@umbc.edu.

State Health Benefits Open Enrollment
Enroll between Oct. 16 and Nov. 9
Dear Colleagues,
Open Enrollment for State Health Benefits begins today, October 16, and will be open through 5 p.m. on Thursday, November 9. Employees who are not making any health benefit changes do not need to take action. However, if you wish to continue a healthcare and/or dependent daycare flexible spending account (FSA), you must re-enroll in your Open Enrollment event.
During Open Enrollment, employees can enroll in and/or make changes to their health benefits to become effective on January 1, 2024. The State of Maryland will send out important emails via the SPS Workday system (
stateofmaryland@myworkday.com) regarding Open Enrollment.
Open Enrollment will continue to be online in the SPS Workday system. For more information on the SPS Workday system, employees should visit the HR website for
detailed instructions on accessing their Workday account. Discover incentives and find out what's new for the State's 2024
Wellness Program.
We are pleased to announce that all existing plans and vendors will remain in place for 2024. However, the State has passed along rate changes that will impact the medical, prescription, and dental plans in 2024. CareFirst, United Healthcare, and Kaiser medical plan rates will increase approximately 9.5 percent. CVS Caremark Prescription plan rates will increase 9 percent. Dental plan rates will increase 9.5 percent. The State MetLife term life insurance and Accidental Death and Dismemberment coverages will experience no rate increases in 2024. Open Enrollment rates and materials are posted on the
HR Open Enrollment website.
Also new for 2024: Employees can now enroll eligible
Domestic Partners and their dependents during Open Enrollment. The effective date of coverage will be January 1, 2024. Employees must enroll and submit documentation for their Domestic Partners and their dependents during Open Enrollment. More information about the documentation required will soon be available on the
HR Open Enrollment website.
The Human Resources Benefits team will host a live, virtual Open Enrollment Information Session via Webex on
October 18 at 10 a.m. Employees who are unable to attend the live session will be able to view a recording that will be posted on the
Virtual Resources page on or around October 27.
