    <h4>B.A.: Criminal Justice </h4>

    <p><strong>Degree Mentors:</strong></p>
    <ul>
    <li><a href="https://amst.umbc.edu/faculty-and-staff/michael-casiano/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Dr. Michael Casiano| Assistant Professor UMBC Department of American Studies</a></li>

    </ul>
    <div><strong>Why did you choose to major in INDS?</strong></div>
    <div>I chose to major in Individualized Study because no single traditional major fully captured my interest in criminal justice. My passion spans law, psychology, sociology, and political science, and INDS gave me the freedom to combine them into one focused degree that aligns with my career goals.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>What are your plans for after graduation, and how do you see using your INDS degree?</strong></div>
    <div>After graduation, I plan to pursue a career in criminal investigation. My INDS degree gives me the flexibility to explore multiple paths, whether that's earning a Crime Scene Investigation certificate, entering a forensic-adjacent role, or continuing my education through graduate school. The interdisciplinary nature of my degree means I'm not limited to one track, which I see as a strength in a field as broad as criminal justice.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Awards, Certifications, Scholarships, etc. that you have received in your time at UMBC: </strong></div>
    <div>
    <ul>
    <li><a href="https://inds.umbc.edu/scholarship-recipients/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Bolton Family Scholarship Recipient| Fall 2025 </a></li>

    <li>Forensic Science: DNA Analysis| University of Cambridge</li>
    </ol>
    <div><strong>Any thing you would like to share about your time at UMBC or in the INDS program:</strong></div>
    <div>The INDS program taught me how to be intentional about my education and connect knowledge across different fields. Winning the Bolton Family Scholarship was a highlight of my time at UMBC, and it allows me to graduate with a passion for criminal justice.</div>

<Title>Spring Cleaning Your Cloud Storage!</Title>
<Tagline>Resources and tips on freeing up space for the future</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Spring is here, and it's time to tidy up your cloud storage so that you'll be able to be more organized and work more efficiently.<div><br></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <h3>Cleaning up Your Email</h3>
    <div>Your UMBC Gmail account is directly linked to your cloud storage, meaning any emails, files, or attachments you receive can take up even the smallest amount of your cloud storage space. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Consider deleting old emails and threads or any emails with large attachments. Also, consider unsubscribing from any unwanted mailing lists. These will help with both freeing up your storage space as well as declutter your inbox.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <h3>Remove/Relocate Unnecessary Files </h3>
    <div>
    <div>You may have a lot of old files on your Google Drive that have not been accessed in over a year. Consider sorting your files by date and removing old files you no longer have a use for. If the files are important but not accessed often, consider archiving them on another storage device. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>You can also sort your files by size on Google Drive. You can use this to see what is taking up the most space and remove any large files that are no longer needed. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Remember, the UMBC Cloud Storage platforms should be used for UMBC-related files and documents, including but not limited to classwork and research. </div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <h3>Empty your Trash Bin</h3>
    <div>Once you have gone through and cleared any files and or emails, be sure to empty your trash bin, as files are not fully removed, meaning you won't get back any storage until that bin is emptied. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <h4>Check your Google Storage</h4>
