<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span>Dear Members of the UMBC Community,<br><br>I am writing to inform you that, after 17 years of outstanding service to our community, Associate Provost Nico Washington will be leaving UMBC on <span><span>February 16</span></span> to take up a new position as Chief Operating Officer at the Universities at Shady Grove. While her outstanding service and leadership at UMBC will be greatly missed, her new position represents an incredible and well-deserved professional opportunity, and I know you will join me in wishing her well in her new endeavor.<br><br>Ms. Washington began her career with the UMBC in the Division of Professional Studies in 2001 and joined the Office of the Provost in 2008. As UMBC's Associate Provost for Financial Management, Ms. Washington was responsible for directing all budgetary and financial planning of the provost's office, as well as providing oversight, administrative, and financial leadership for the Division of Academic Affairs. Ms. Washington was instrumental in UMBC's Shared Services Centers planning and implementation, where she served as co-chair of the initiative from 2012 to present. Ms. Washington developed, designed, and planned and implemented, as well as directed, the Academic Affairs Shared Services Center in the Office of the Provost.<br><br>We will begin a search for Ms. Washington's replacement as associate provost for financial management shortly and will update the university community as soon as more information becomes available.<br><br>On behalf of the entire UMBC community, I would like to thank Ms. Washington for her exceptional contributions to UMBC over the years. I would also like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere thanks to her for all the support she has provided to me personally as provost over the past six years.<br><br>A farewell reception for Nico Washington will be held on <span><span>Monday, February 12, 3 - 5 p.m.</span></span>, in the University Center, room 312. Light refreshments will be served. Please RSVP to Karen Roberts, <a href="mailto:karenrob@umbc.edu?subject=" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">karenrob@umbc.edu</a>, by <span><span>February 5</span></span> if you can join us for this occasion.<br><br></span><em><span><span>Provost Philip Rous</span></span></em>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Hello!<br><br> As advising coordinator, I am here to ensure that if you are a POLI major or minor, that you have a political science professor assigned to you as your adviser. <em>Note that you should have an adviser for each of your majors/minors and meet with them at least once a semester. They fulfill an essential role, namely, among other things, giving you clearance for your class enrollment! </em><br><br>If you do not have a POLI adviser, or do not know who they are, I'm the one to ask! I can also do my best to answer general academic or campus resource questions, or point you in the right direction. I am a masters student in the school of public policy, and I am also happy to talk about graduate school or career plans. Don't hesitate to reach out. <br><br>POLITICAL SCIENCE ADVISING COORDINATOR <br>SPRING 2018 HOURS: <br><br>Mondays/Wednesdays 11am-3pm<br><br>Tuesdays/Thursdays 2pm-5pm<br><br><br><em>*If you cannot make these hours, reach me at <a href="mailto:polisciadvising@umbc.edu">polisciadvising@umbc.edu</a>.
