SEA provides one-week camps for middle and high school students on the UMBC Campus. These camps help kids to stay engaged, have fun learning science and technology skills, and get excited about STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) at UMBC.</p>
    <p>These SEA CIRTL Fellows will develop and implement a SEA one (1) week course in an engineering topic of their choice with guided mentorship in Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 and implement the course with SEA in Summer 2024. Fellows will be required to attend a variety of sessions that help them solidify their course ideas, learn about teaching approaches that are accessible and engaging for high school and middle school students, and plan their courses. This will all count toward a CIRTL certificate, which is a nationally recognized teaching certificate! Upon teaching the course in Summer 2024, Fellows will be paid a minimum of $1000/week for 1 or 2 weeks, with an opportunity for more depending on enrollment for the course.</p>
    <p><span>Note:</span> Courses are run as half-day camps for a week (5 days), and Fellows will be able to choose two weeks of these five options:  June 24-28, July 8-12, July 15-19, July 22-26, July 29 – August 2.</p>

<Title>2023 Hill-Robinson McNair Lecture September 14th</Title>
<Tagline>5pm Linehan Concert Hall</Tagline>

    <p><em><strong>***This event is organized by the McNair Scholars Program. Original event posted <a href="https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/public-mcnair/events/119641" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>.***</strong></em></p>
    <p>The UMBC McNair Scholars Program will present the 5th Annual Hill-Robinson McNair Lecture, named in honor of Cynthia M. Hill, former UMBC Associate Provost &amp; Founding UMBC McNair Director, and Thomas Robinson, PhD., Assistant Professor of Africana Studies and McNair Research Methods Faculty for over 30 years.<em><br></em></p>
    <p><strong>A Love Supreme: The (Rhetorical) Legacy of John Coltrane</strong></p>
    <div>Earl Brooks, Assistant Professor, English, UMBC<br>
    </div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Jazz musician John Coltrane's oeuvre, including his iconic album <em>A Love Supreme</em>, represented a synthesis of competing discourses and sensibilities in Black America: that of moderate integrationists of the Civil Rights Movement and the emerging concerns of countercultural Afrocentrism. In this concert/talk, I argue that such syntheses propelled Coltrane's larger status as a cultural symbol of Black innovation and aesthetics through his role as a purveyor of epistemic sonic schema-a body of sonic material that produces knowledge-as an aural analog to theorist Kenneth Burke's critical practice of "perspective by incongruity" as well as the communication of doubled meanings associated with African American rhetorical traditions popularly known as signifying.</div>
    <div> </div>
