<Title>Report Updates in REX Guided Reports</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <span><span>We have several new reports available in REX as well as some report modifications to announce:<br><br>A <span>new</span> 
    <span>report, <strong>Reserve Capacity Sections</strong>, </span>has been created in REX to allow users to view 
    reserve capacities that have been set up for courses during the selected
     term.  This report is useful to scheduling coordinators who set up 
    reserve capacity requirement groups as it allows them to review the 
    groups, start dates, and capacities that have been set up for the 
    groups. <br><br><span>The <span>report</span> can be accessed by going to <a href="http://rex.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span><span>rex</span></span>.umbc.edu</a>, clicking on '<em>Guided <span>Reports</span></em>', then navigating to:<br><br></span></span></span><span><span><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course</em><em> &gt; Reserve Capacity Sections<br></em></span></span></span><div><div><img src="https://ci6.googleusercontent.com/proxy/RnNZfQn2o2xpggJQqefCOervMbPIci5mujDPJnvl43kv6Rtxjyh5gHN_JKVzeU-aaGz3pePFgxfoAAtZJZNx8mveVTc-11j98EfuAJVcumUenA=s0-d-e1-ft#https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></div></div>
    <br><span><span><div>The <strong>Ticket Queue Changes</strong> report is a new report that will 
    allow users to see which tickets were initially assigned to their queue 
    but ended up being resolved in a different queue.  A date range 
    (defaulting to the last 7 days) can be entered for reviewing queue 
    changes. <br><br>The report can be found at:<br><br><em>RT &gt; Ticket Queue Changes</em><br><span><br><br></span>The
    <strong> Active Instructors</strong> report has been modified to include a column which 
    shows the instructor's primary role.  Parameters have been added to the 
    report to allow for selection by Primary Role and selection of Primary 
    vs. Non-primary instructors.  Note that an instructor is considered to 
    be a Primary Instructor if he/she is the primary instructor on any 
    section during the selected term.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The report can be found by navigating to:<br><br>
    </div>
    <div><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Faculty &gt; Active Instructors</em></div></span></span><br><br><div>
    <p><span>We have renamed the <strong>Course Prereqs by Session</strong> report to <strong>Course Prerequisites</strong>. <br></span></p>
    <p><span>This report can be accessed by navigating to:</span></p>
    <p><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course &gt; Course Prerequisites</em></span></p>
    <p><span> </span></p>
    <p><span>In
     order to distinguish between the session codes within a term, we have 
    modified the following reports to include grouping by Session:</span></p>
    <ul>
    <li><p><span><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course &gt; </em></span><em>Classes with Final Exam Conflicts</em></span></p></li>
    <li><p><span><span><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course &gt; </em></span></span><em>Cross Listed Courses Without Combined Section</em></span></p></li>
    <li><p><span><span><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course &gt; </em></span></span><em>High Deficiency Rate Courses</em></span></p></li>
    <li><p><em><span><span><span><em>Curriculum Management &gt; Course &gt; </em></span></span>Unapproved Grade Rosters</span></em></p></li>

<Title>The State of Maryland Health Risk Assessment and Wellness Program</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>The State of Maryland has implemented a new Health Risk Assessment and Wellness Program for employees with Health Benefits. <strong>To avoid a surcharge of $50 (plus an additional $50 for your spouse) in 2016, it is very important that you complete the following steps by September 30, 2015:</strong></p>
    <p><strong>Step 1:</strong> Log into your health provider’s website and select a Primary Care Provider (PCP).</p>
    <p><strong>Step 2:</strong> Complete an online Health Risk Assessment (20-30 minutes) and print the results.</p>
    <p><strong>Step 3:</strong> Discuss the results with your doctor and have him or her complete a physician’s sign-off form. <em>Note: the physician at University Health Services can complete your sign-off form.</em></p>
    <p><strong>Once you complete these steps your co-pays will be waived for the remainder of the year</strong>. If you have any questions or want to learn more about the Health Risk Assessment and Wellness Program, please attend the <strong><a href="http://my.umbc.edu/events/32152" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">State Health &amp; Wellness event</a> tomorrow, May 12, from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. in the University Center, Room 310</strong>.</p>
    <p>We also encourage you to <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/groups/hr/news/51831" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">visit the Human Resources website</a> for step-by-step instructions, including information on selecting a PCP, as well as a list of additional upcoming campus events.</p>

    <h4><span>Baltimore County Boost Fund Approves $580,000 in Small Business Loans </span></h4>
    <span><br></span><span><br></span><br><div>
    <p>Baltimore County Executive <span>Kevin Kamenetz </span>announced <span>$580,000</span> in new loans to seven small, minority-and women-owned businesses from the Baltimore County Boost Fund, a flexible financing resource for entrepreneurs. A total of $1.38 million in loans have been approved since the program launched in October 2014.</p>
    <p>“The Boost Fund offers flexible loans to support promising companies. We are especially pleased to provide loans to cybersecurity, edtech and environmental technology companies at bwtech@UMBC and the TU Incubator, university business incubators that are nurturing entrepreneurship and the next generation of great Baltimore County companies,” said Baltimore County Executive Kamenetz.</p>
    <p>The Boost Fund, managed by the Baltimore County Department of Economic and Workforce Development, can lend qualified small businesses between $50,000 and $250,000 for start-up and gap funding, building and leasehold improvements, business and equipment acquisition, commercial real estate acquisition, and working capital.</p>
    <p>Boost Fund loans are flexible, with a reduced down payment and interest rates set at or below market rates. Payment plans are customized to meet the cash flow needs of each business.</p>
    <p>“Working capital is the lifeblood of small and early stage companies. Baltimore County’s Boost Fund is a valuable resource to help our bwtech@UMBC companies move to the next level,” said Ellen Hemmerly, Executive Director of the bwtech@UMBC Research and Technology Park.</p>
    <p>Loan funding comes from the Maryland Small, Minority and Women-Owned Business Loan Fund, which was established with revenue from Maryland casinos.</p>
