Students will have the opportunity to consider the role of human values in the pursuit of the sciences and in the invention and employment of various technologies.

HCST 499 / PUBL 398 / HIST 494: Public Health in Historical, Philosophical, and Social Context
This course will take an integrative approach to some of the major issues of public health, such as sanitation reform, eugenics, the disparities between health in wealthy and developing nations, and the tension between civil rights and the public good. We begin with an introduction to the field paying special attention to the epistemological, ethical, and legal dimensions of these issues. As we progress into our historical survey we will focus on cultural and social determinants of these issues, how they correspond to policy and practice in the present, and what, if anything, we might do to create change.

AAAI Undergraduate Consortium
Special program for undergrads at AAAI 2023 in DC, Feb 7
If you are an undergraduate student who is interested in Artificial Intelligence, we encourage you to apply to the 2023 Undergraduate Consortium (AAAI-UC) at the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Washington, DC. This conference is one of the top-tier conferences in AI and would offer access to cutting-edge research and researchers in AI from around the world.
We will prioritize undergraduates from marginalized communities in computing that are one or two years from graduation and are interested in doing artificial intelligence research yet have had little exposure to it. Check out the
Call for Participation.
Students accepted into the 2023 AAAI-UC program will attend the UC events and will meet with an assigned mentor to discuss their research interests and receive feedback on the application materials that they submitted. They will be inspired by exceptional plenary speakers at both the AAAI-UC and the AAAI main conference. Travel funding will be available, with priority for funding given to students local to the DC area and students with multiple marginalized identities.
The schedule of events and activities from the 2022 AAAI-UC is available
here.
The deadline has been extended to Sunday, November 13th, 2022.

Meeting tonight
Hello anime fans! We have a meeting tonight from 6pm-11pm in Admin 101 and on our Discord server; feel free to pop in whenever you want.
Also, as you may know, Election Day is this coming Tuesday, and we would like to encourage everyone to go out and vote! National politics aside, it's important to have a say in how your local governments are run, and there are some important issues up for referendum in Maryland.

Food for Fines
Say Goodbye to a Citation When You Donate Five Items
One of the saddest statistics you will hear today is approximately one out of every three college students in America suffers from food insecurity. This is a startling statistic and one that needs to be corrected.
UMBC's Retriever Essentials and Parking Services are teaming up for Food for Fines. This program was created to collect food and toiletries for UMBC students facing food insecurity.
How does it work? From November 7-18, simply bring in five or more items from the attached list and we will reduce one active citation to a warning (the citation must be $40 or less). Previously paid citations are not eligible. All donations must be made at the Parking Services offices from 8 AM to 4 PM, Monday thru Friday by November 18.
Don't have any citations? We are happy to accept any and all donations. We just ask that your items be unopened and non-expired.
College is hard enough to manage without dealing with hunger. Your help can mean so much to so many students.
A little bit can help so many! Questions? Contact Parking Services at 410-455-2551 or email us at
