UMBC Ice Hockey Training Camp
Once again, UMBC Ice Hockey will hold their annual training camp and tryouts over Labor Day weekend. Camp will be held at the Retrievers home rink, Reisterstown Sportsplex and will begin with player check-in at 2:00pm on Friday September 4th concluding on Sunday September 6th at 5:15pm. Camp runs all weekend and participants must be present the entire time. An itinerary will be provided upon registration.
If you have not been in contact with the coaching staff to register, please email coach Pelus at
icehockey.umbc@gmail.com to register. The cost for camp is $150 per player and includes ice costs and food for the weekend as well as team t-shirt and shorts.
The team is also looking for individuals interested in helping with gameday operations off the ice for both home and away games. Please inquire to Coach Pelus at
icehockey.umbc@gmail.com

STEM Transfer Success at UMBC
Dr. Susan Martin, Associate Director of the Center for Women in Technology (CWIT) and Dr. Sarah Jewett, Executive Director of the STEM Transfer Student Success Initiative, describe how their programs help underserved students succeed in STEM fields.
CWIT hosts the T-Site Scholars Program, which supports transfer students through and S-STEM grand from the National Science Foundation. The STEM Transfer Student Success Initiative -- an innovative collaboration funded by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation -- is an inter-institutional effort with UMBC and four area community colleges: Anne Arundel Community College, The Community College of Baltimore County, Howard Community College, and Montgomery College.
This articles is the first of a two-part series by Martin and Jewett reflecting on "the process of creating mechanisms to improve the success of traditionally under-served students in STEM fields." In the next installment, they will share some of the lessons learned while creating their unique programs.

PhD proposal: Assistive Contactless Capacitive Electrostatic Sensing System, 12pm 8/21
Ph.D. Proposal
ACCESS: An Assistive Contactless Capacitive
Electrostatic Sensing System
Alexander Nelson
12:00pm Friday, 21 August 2015, ITE 325b
The objective of ACCESS is to develop fabric capacitor sensor arrays as a holistic, wearable, touchless sensing solution. The fabric sensors are lightweight, flexible, and can therefore be integrated into items of everyday use. Further, the capacitive sensing hardware is low-power, unobtrusive, and easily maintainable. The research includes: the construction of fabric sensor prototypes and custom sensing hardware; the development of adaptive signal processing and gesture recognition; and the creation of an assistive cyber-physical interface for mobility impairment. The research is conducted with advisement from medical professionals and private consultants, and evaluated in clinical trials by individuals with upper-extremity mobility impairment. Proposed future work includes evaluation of the assistive device for computational overhead, the inclusion of personal contextual information in gesture recognition and device actuation, and investigation of a dense spatial-resolution capacitor sensor array as a low-resolution greyscale imaging system.
Committee: Drs. Nilanjan Banerjee and Ryan Robucci (Chairs), Chintan Patel, Sandy McCombe-Waller (UMB Medical School)

Honoring the Life and Legacy of Louis Stokes: Champion
Former Congressman Louis Stokes passed on August 18, 2015
In memory of Louis Stokes: February 23, 1925 - August 18, 2015
The LSAMP programs at the National Science Foundation are named after former Congressman Louis Stokes. Louis Stokes passed away this week. UMBC is part of two LSAMP programs for the University System of Maryland: the LSAMP program for undergraduate students (part of the Meyerhoff Scholors program) with the University of Maryland College Park and the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, and the LSAMP Bridge to the Doctorate program with College Park.
NSF Program Director for LSAMP, Dr. Tasha Inniss shared these words:
Dear LSAMP Community:
I am sure many of you have already heard about the great loss we have all experienced with the passing of Congressman Louis Stokes on Tuesday, August 18th. He was a true champion of students of color in STEM. This is the reason why the national Alliances for Minority Participation program was renamed in his honor in 1999, the year he retired from Congress. The legacy of his tremendous impact will be long-lasting. Here is one of the stories featuring him in the USA Today:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/08/19/louis-stokes-dies/31971351/
Please keep his family, friends, colleagues and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers.

Program Director and Co-Lead, LSAMP Program
Division of Human Resource Development (HRD)
Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR)
UMBC and the USM LSAMP program take this time to honor Louis Stokes' legacy and his contributions to social justice. The following news feeds (via Google) have stories about his life. Please take a few moments to read about more about Louis Stokes, a champion for equality.
