Here are links to some of the workshops and programs Monique from our Lunch and Learn Event with Exelon and Brooksource. These are great ways to gain the skills and experience needed to start your career.

  • Exerceo is an organization that hosts the tech incubator and working groups skills trainings. Students can pick a topic they want to learn ( DevOps, Data Science, Sys Admin, Software development and Cybersecurity) and then enroll themselves in classes that most interest them at times they are available
  • Through the Virtual Student Federal Service (VSFS) program, students can work on projects on their own time, from anywhere they are - that advance the work of government on multiple fronts. Projects include helping counter violent extremism, strengthening human rights monitoring, developing virtual programs, engaging in digital communications, mapping, economic and political reporting, data analysis, graphic design, and app building.  https://vsfs.state.gov/about

General:

  • UMBC is undertaking a new initiative to change its branding. The “Honors University” brand is working well for UMBC at the undergraduate level, but it is not indicative of the institution as a whole. Instead, UMBC is now branded as a “community of inquiring minds”. For more information on branding and its impact on student life, please email mir@umbc.edu as input is definitely encouraged.

  • Senate will be hosting a General Public Forum on Monday, April 15th at 5:35 p.m. where any student can bring concerns forward to the SGA Senate that are unrelated to the budget. If you would like to participate, please fill out this Google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf8of5tkU7CjOvR4EwW89K1SdiRLfTrOANu4au7fP-tMwgyUw/viewform?usp=sf_link

  • The Student Administrative Academic Advising Committee has updated the “audit doughnut” which shows an accurate view of your degree audit. They are encouraging students to plan their classes and walk through registration in new ways. They are making the process for advising easier when you switch majors.


Initiatives:

  • There will be a meeting with Assistant Chief Bruce Perry to discuss plans for student outreach to the campus police.

  • There is an upcoming meeting with a representative for an initiative to reduce UMBC’s STEM stigma.

  • Upcoming meeting for a Transfer Student Support Committee

    • Any questions that can be asked during a Town Hall meeting can be sent to Brandon Liu (bliu3@umbc.edu).

Why are memory-corruption bugs still a thing?

The challenges of securing software at an assembly level

10:30-11:30 Monday, 8 April 2019, ITE346

Methods to chip away at the danger of memory-corruption bugs have been available for some time.  Why has the going-price of memory-corruption-based exploits not spiked?  If the methods were have a broad-based result in mitigating exploit vectors, there would be a reduction in supply, causing an increase in prices.  Also, there would be a reduction in the pool of people qualified to develop zero-days, allowing them to push the prices up.  The data suggest that prices have remained generally stable and attackers are able to move with impunity.  What are the challenges to large-scale adoption of memory-corruption based mitigation methods.

We have great news, the ILE is extending its family and adding a new cluster, the Japanese cluster!
If you would love to get language credits for living with other students who are passionate about Japanese culture and you would like to develop and earn a certificate that proves tour intercultural skills, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE!

You will spend an hour a week with a native speaker who will further your knowledge of the culture beyond what is covered in class.

Once a month there will be a joint event with the members of the other clusters (Spanish, Chinese, and French) so everyone can learn from each other and once per semester you will receive intercultural training, if you take 4 semesters you will earn an additional certificate that could be the difference maker when looking for a job!

The college basketball Twitter universe exploded on Saturday afternoon as some shocking rumors were spread. Multiple sources claimed that UMBC men’s basketball head coach Ryan Odom had agreed with a deal to coach Virginia Tech for next season. According to UMBC Athletics, those reports are not accurate.

The rumors seem to have originated from a tweet by Washington Post reporter Gene Wang. They circulated over Twitter throughout much of the day, with multiple news sources reporting that Odom would indeed be leaving the Retrievers to coach at Virginia Tech.

There are conflicting reports that sources close to Odom have indicated a potential plan for Odom to move to Virginia Tech, but those reports remain unsubstantiated at this time.

Odom has spent three years with the Retrievers. After the team failed to win more than nine games in the seven seasons prior to his arrival, Odom lead the team to three straight twenty-win seasons. He took UMBC to back-to-back postseason appearances including a semi-final appearance in the CIT, and the historic win that took place over Virginia in the NCAA tournament. His career record at UMBC currently sits at 67-37.

This is currently a developing news story and we will update as more information becomes available.
