Women's Center Lactation Room - Spring Reservations
Schedule Your Reservation for Spring 2023 Semester!
**** This is a repost from the Women Center's myUMBC Page***
Moms and parents who plan on using the Women's Center lactation room, now officially named the Maxine Tracy Wellness Room, throughout the winter and spring semester are encouraged to sign up for their preferred reservation times. We are accepting reservations now.
To reserve your time, email
womenscenter@umbc.edu for access to our online reservation form. You can also stop by the Women's Center during our hours of operation to complete the form in person. All parents who reserve times will be added to the lactation room google calendar and a group email list in order to support communication and best navigate multiple people using the space.
While the Women's Center works diligently with parents to ensure access to the lactation room, we're also pleased to partner with the Library which now also hosts a lactation room.
AOK Library has a lactation room available on the 7th floor. The room includes a table, two chairs, an outlet and power strip, and sanitizing wipes.. It may be reserved for up to one hour, up to 7 days in advance. A key is also available on a first-come, first-served basis at the Check Out Desk on the Library's first floor. Reserve the Lactation Room for periods up to 1 hour.
We also have an additional lactation room available on the ground floor of the RAC (room 073). This room has a sink and chair. This room is first-come-first-serve. The Women’s Center oversees the operation of this room. If you experience any issues or have any concerns related to the space, please contact us.
For questions and concerns, stop by the Women's Center during our hours of operation, give us a ring at 410-455-2714, or send us an email at
womenscenter@umbc.edu

UPDATE: We Believe You Discussion Group Meeting Soon!!
Interested in attending? We want your opinion!
The We Believe You (WBY) discussion group is a space for survivors of gender- and power-based violence to build community among one another. This discussion-based program follows the Women’s Center Brave Space model to provide a welcoming environment and thoughtful community to engage in conversations focused on support and healing for survivors of sexual violence. This group centers the experiences of survivors and their allies, but all are welcome!
This semester, we are doing something a bit different... If you are interested in attending biweekly discussion group meetings (i.e. every other week), please sign-up below.
We will move forward with discussion groups only if we have at least 5 people sign up. Our myUMBC will be updated to reflect either the addition of meetings or a notice that WBY is on hiatus. UPDATE: We have received a lot of interest so rest assured we will be hosting We Believe You for the spring semester! Check out our events for the full calendar.
The deadline to sign up for WBY (Part 1) will be Thursday, February 9th!
Please note: you are free to attend/not attend the group whenever you'd like. Interest in the group and indication of preferred dates does not mean you are obligated to attend.
For the Spring 2023, we will be hosting a sign-up at the beginning of the semester and at the mid-point (around Spring Break).
Points of contact/co-facilitators of the group are Amelia Meman and Audrey Gatewood. For more information or to get in touch, please email
womenscenter@umbc.edu

Check out our upcoming events!
From Feb. 3, 2023 - Feb. 15, 2023
NIH led fitness class for heart health month
Friday, February 3, 2023 12 - 12:30 PM Online
Each year on the first Friday in February, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, The Heart Truth® and others around the country celebrate National Wear Red Day® to bring greater attention to heart disease as a leading cause of death for Americans and steps people can take to protect their heart.
Join us Friday, February 3 to get #OurHearts pumping!
Wear red and join The Heart Truth, the NIH Fitness Center, and NHLBI leaders for 25 minutes of heart-pumping activity! During this live event, Drs. Gary Gibbons, NHLBI director, and David Goff, director of NHLBI's Division of Cardiovascular Sciences, will join NIH Fitness Instructor Linda Bessacque and others around the country for a sampling of fun aerobic exercises including kickboxing, dance, and flowing stretches. All fitness levels are welcome to participate.
When it comes to physical activity, aim for at least 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity each week. This can reduce your risk for heart disease and your chances of developing other risk factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and being overweight.

2022 W-2s Are Available
Access W-2s via POSC and paper W-2s were mailed.
Mailed W-2 Information
The IRS requires W-2s to be mailed out by January 31st. Employees have begun getting them in the mail. You may also access your W-2 via the Payroll Online Service Center (POSC).
Electronic W-2 Information via POSC
If you are a new user, you will need to sign up. You will need the UMBC Agency Code (360231) and your last paycheck/pay advice number (only pay stubs issued within the last 8 weeks can be used). This information can be obtained by the departmental payroll preparer via the final gross pay report or review paycheck in the PeopleSoft system.
Employees who have terminated more than 8 weeks prior, lived in more than one state during the year, will receive a corrected W2, or will be receiving a 1042S (Non-Resident Aliens for Tax Purposes) cannot use the online service and must call the Central Payroll Bureau directly.
Your 2022 W-2: What You Need to Know
Questions About your W-2
Any additional in depth tax questions or concerns should be directed to the following:
Comptroller of Maryland's Taxpayer Service (410) 260-7980 or
(800) MD-TAXES is available 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Monday - Friday. Email your tax questions to Comptroller of Maryland's Taxpayer Service
taxhelp@comp.state.md.us.
For federal filing questions, please call IRS (800) 829-1040
Please be aware that the Central Payroll Bureau, MD Taxpayer Services, and the IRS are working on a limited schedule and may have delayed processing time.
Dear AAAFSC Community,
I hope you had a lovely winter break and a great start of this new semester.
One of the conversations we had during our January lunch meeting was career development. The book was recommended by Hua Lu (Biology). If you are interested in reading this book, please submit your information using the Google Form below by Wednesday 2/8/2023. We will purchase the book and deliver it to your campus mailbox. If there is sufficient interest among us, we will have a book discussion in Fall 2023.
An essential career guide for every Asian American—and all their co-workers and managers—that explains how traditional Asian cultural values are at odds with Western corporate culture.
Leading Asian American career coach and advocate Jane Hyun explains that the lack of Asian Americans in executive suite positions is brought about by a combination of Asian cultures and traditions strait-jacketing Asian Americans in the workplace, and how the group’s lack of vocal affirmation in popular media and culture, afflicts them with a “perpetual foreigner syndrome” in the eyes of Americans who don’t know enough to understand the challenges placed on Asian Americans in the corporate environment.
Filled with anecdotes and case studies from her own consulting experience covering the gamut of Asian Americans from various backgrounds, the book discusses how being Asian affects the way they interact with colleagues, managers, and clients, and will offer advice and real world solutions while exposing the challenges encountered.
For the Asian reader, the book will help them to see the cultural barriers they subconsciously place in their own career paths and how to overcome them. For the non-Asian reader, the book serves as a primer for promoting optimal working relationships with Asians, and will help start a dialogue that will benefit all.
