Dear Retrievers,
It's time to get excited! Homecoming 2025 is just around the corner, and we can't wait to see campus come alive with Retriever fever! This is our favorite time of year, when we all come together—alumni, faculty, staff, students, families, and neighbors—to celebrate what it means to be a Retriever. The energy on campus during Homecoming is absolutely unmatched!
This year's Homecoming festivities kick off with our annual student org kickball tournament and bonfire on Sunday, October 5, and continue with a full week of incredible events through Sunday, October 12. We've been working hard to create a schedule that truly has something for everyone, whether you're looking to reconnect with old friends, enjoy some fun and games, or just want another excuse to show off your Retriever pride.
-
Homecoming Bonfire (October 5): Start the week by building your Retriever spirit.
-
Staff and Faculty Social (October 8): Socialize with colleagues and enjoy some delicious appetizers.
-
Retriever Madness (October 9): Cheer on our student-athletes and campus community and enjoy some tasty snacks and beverages!
-
GRIT-X Talks and Reception (October 9): Hear from some of UMBC’s most intriguing faculty, staff, and alumni minds. View this year’s speakers at research.umbc.edu/grit-x.
-
Retriever Spotlight in the Skylight (October 10): Celebrate the artistic talents of our alumni community in this brand new event.
-
Homecoming Carnival (October 10 – 11): Enjoy rides, games, and fun for all ages.
-
Retriever 5K and Family Fun Run (October 11): Register by September 19 to receive a commemorative t-shirt and medal.
-
Taste of Maryland Crab Feast (October 11): Feast at the Taste of Maryland, which includes all your Maryland favorites—even if you don't eat crabs! Vegetarian and vegan options will be available.
-
Homecoming Soccer Games (October 11 – 12): Cheer on men’s soccer as they take on New Hampshire Saturday, October 11, at 7 p.m. Women’s soccer hosts Vermont the next day, Sunday, October 12, at 12 p.m. There’s a replica jersey giveaway for the first 300 fans!
This is just a small sample of the excitement we have planned for you. Be sure to
visit the Homecoming website for the full schedule of events. I can't wait to see you all at Homecoming!
Go Retrievers!

Take Control of Your Google Drive: A Guide to Freeing Up Space
Declutter your cloud storage and make room for new projects
Is your Google Drive running out of space? Don't worry, you're not alone. With a few simple steps, you can free up valuable storage and get organized for future documents and projects. These tips can also be applied to other UMBC cloud services like Box and OneDrive.
Check your Google Storage
To see how much storage you’re using, click here:
1. Find and Delete Your Largest Files
The fastest way to free up space is to target the largest files.
- In Google Drive, click on the Storage tab in the left-hand menu. Your files will automatically be sorted by size, from largest to smallest.
- Review this list and delete any files you no longer need. This is where you'll find space-consuming files like video files (.MP4, .MOV), large presentations, and audio recordings (.WAV).
2. Clean Up Files You No Longer Need
If you're not sure which files to delete, consider looking at their last accessed date.
- Use Google Drive's advanced search feature to find old files. Click the slider icon at the end of the search bar to open advanced search options.
- You can search for files by type, owner, and date. For example, search for "Last modified: Before [Date]" to find all files you haven't touched in over a year.
Advanced Search can be accessed by clicking the slider icon at the end of the search bar
3. Address Shared and Duplicate Files
-
Remove yourself from shared folders no longer in use: Removing yourself from a shared folder doesn't reclaim your storage space (the files still belong to the owner), but it's an excellent way to reduce clutter in your drive.
-
Identify and delete duplicate files: It's easy to create unnecessary copies of documents. Regularly search for and delete duplicate files to free up space.
4. Empty the Trash
This is the most critical step! When you delete a file, it's sent to the trash bin and continues to count toward your storage limit for 30 days. To immediately reclaim that space, you must manually empty your trash.
- Navigate to the Trash tab in the left-hand menu.
- Review the contents and click Empty Trash to permanently delete the files and free up your storage.
5. Consider Archiving Old Projects
For files you want to keep but don't need daily access to, consider archiving them.
- Download them to a hard drive or an external storage device.
- You can also compress multiple files into a single .zip folder for easier downloading and storage.

FREE: 10-Week Online Global Virtual Exchange Program!
Connect across cultures and explore youth well-being
Hello UMBC undergraduates!
The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, & Public Health was invited to continue with an ongoing program that may be of interest to you. The program is entitled "Youth Well-Being" and is
funded by the prestigious Stevens Initiative, which is an international collaboration funded by the US Department of State, the Bezos Family Foundation, and the governments of Morocco and the UAE. The effort is named after the U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens who
"devoted his life to building connections through open and respectful dialogue and person-to-person diplomacy... He served the majority of his Foreign Service career in the Middle East and North Africa, a region he grew to love, and eventually served as U.S. Ambassador to Libya." In other words, the goal of the Stevens Initiative is to build friendship, learning, and exchange between countries. The program is completely FREE and is a wonderful resume-builder! It includes a mixture of asynchronous and synchronous (Mondays from 8:30-10am EST on Sept. 15, Sept. 29, Oct. 13, Oct. 27, and Nov. 10).
See below for details, timeline, and sign up link (enroll by September 14th).
Youth Well-Being: Stevens Initiative Virtual Exchange Program
Join undergraduate students from Khalifa University, UMBC, and Miami University (of Ohio) for an engaging 10-week virtual exchange (mixture of asynchronous and synchronous content, see schedule below) exploring youth well-being from a global perspective. Running September 15 – November 17, 2025, the program dives into American and UAE lifestyles, the dimensions of well-being, and the role of families, communities, and economies in shaping healthier futures. Through interactive modules, live discussions, and collaborative projects, students will connect across cultures, sharpen their critical thinking, and gain practical insights into improving well-being worldwide. Participants who complete the program will earn a certificate of completion and join the Stevens Initiative Alumni Network, expanding their global academic and professional connections. Sign up by September 14, 2025 to be part of this unique international learning experience!
