<Title>Info from Involvement Fest, "meeting" tonight (9/4)!</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">Hi writers! <div><br></div>
    <div>WE WILL BE "MEETING" TODAY, 9/4 FROM 6-7 PM, unofficially, in Flat Tuesdays (the room to the right of the information desk at the Commons). Some of us will be there getting to know each other and having a little free-write time, getting to know what you are looking for in the club, and sharing some projects or ideas.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <ul>
    <li>Regular meetings will be held Wednesdays 6-7, location TBD (we will let you know ASAP!), and will be writing time and prompt responses for the first half or so, then sharing and discussing our pieces.</li>
    <li>We will do monthly workshopping in-person meetings, times and locations are still being figured out. We also have a workshop channel in the Discord to post pieces and to discuss with others what critiques, skill building, etc.</li>
    <li>
    <a href="https://discord.com/invite/C2bKhgNQpk" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Our Discord</a> is currently our main platform of communication, where we discuss writing, post prompts, responses, works of our own, and more</li>
    <li>
    <a href="https://www.instagram.com/umbccreativewriting/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Our Instagram</a> is being revitalized and will be updated with this semester's prompts, events, projects, and more</li>
    <li>And finally, our stories that you all wrote one sentence at a time are below! We had run out of space on the first one, so we had to begin anew on a second, also posted below</li>
    </ul>
    <div>It was nice to see so many of you at Involvement Fest, and hopefully we will continue to see you all this semester! </div>

<Title>UMBC offers Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Microcredential Series. From UMBC's Grad Student &amp; Postdoc Development</Title>
<Tagline>Required for any individual receiving funding from NIH</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Grad Student &amp; Postdoc Development Group is pleased to announce the launch of the <em>Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Microcredential Series</em> - a set of <em><strong>in-person</strong></em> workshops this fall. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>While we will still offer virtual RCR training in <a href="https://research.umbc.edu/2135-2/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">CITI</a>, these new in-person discussion-based workshops are required for any individual receiving funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), including undergraduate students, graduate students, staff, postdocs, and faculty (see NIH guidance <a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-22-055.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>). In order to meet NIH’s requirements for in-person RCR training, we have established these workshops as a series of microcredentials (also called “badges”) that lead to an overarching RCR “mega”credential. It should be noted that UMBC requires all graduate students completing a master's thesis or doctoral degree, along with all postdoctoral research associates, to complete RCR training through either <a href="https://research.umbc.edu/2135-2/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">CITI </a>or the new in-person RCR Microcredential Series. </div>
    <div><br></div>
