PARKING SERVICES !!!
If only.... You did your job properly
Dear Impassioned unnamed parking service attendant, the great purveyor of cars and the upholder of the oath of parking services,
I am beyond overjoyed that UMBC hired someone as fastidious as you. Not only are you careful in giving parking tickets but are also thoughtful.
You are so VERY thoughtful that when you did (OR DID NOT) write me up for not having a valid parking permit (Which I had sitting in clear sunlight on my ample dashboard) YOU FORGOT TO GIVE ME /PLACE ON MY CAR that annoying yellow ticket to let me know of your mischief.
Furthermore, you conveniently took a picture from up close of the top of my windshield BUT NOT the entire of the Front Windshield because that would have allowed the inconvenient truth to surface ...aka "I HAD MY A parking permit sitting cozy in plain view ON MY DASHBOARD (because it often falls of when hung from my rear view mirror)."
So today I am forced to pay $40 for a ticket that not only did I not receive but was a complete JOKE !!! The only reason I don't have to pay an additional fee for lateness is because I happened to go to the parking service office to get a new permit for the new academic year . There, it was brought to my notice that I had an outstanding citation. What a brilliant way to start my day !!
Additionally , I cannot appeal the citation because of your thoughtful exclusion of a ticket and the consequent unawareness on my part ( the appeal date is long gone)
Well played sir , you are very effective at your conniving trade . As a mere suggestion, I would entreat you to have a little class while giving out errant parking violation tickets as you purvey the masses of civic and its ilks in the sweltering sun. After-all, we indeed are a top 5 upcoming school for multiple years in the making!!
Thanks,
A very disgruntled UMBC student

Room available extremely close to the campus
The deal you get here is beyond amazing!
Hello everyone,
My name is Babur Khan, I'm a second year Graduate Student at UMBC. We have two rooms available in our townhouse near the campus. I am currently away and the other roommate is an Undergrad at UMBC.
The House:
Its on Westland blvd, between Gloria ave and Linden ave. The house is unbelievably close to the campus (if you walk for 200 yards, you can see the TRC) and is conveniently located between two UMBC/MTA bus stops. The neighborhood is very safe, with both campus police and county police roaming around in the vicinity at most times. The house is also near Mars and Downtown Arbutus, both of which are about a 10-15 minute walk.
The Rooms:
There are two rooms available. One is on the top floor, facing the front of the house. Its a decent sized room with a couple of windows for fresh air and light. My room is right next to the one that is up for rent, and the other roommate also lives on the same floor.
The second room is in the basement, with easy access to the back door, the kitchen and the laundry room.
The Deal:
The rent, compared to other rooms in the neighborhood, is very low (Decided by the landlord, so not sure about the exact amount). Water is paid by the landlord. Me and my friend are both very easy going roommates who try to keep the place clean and presentable. There is no smoking or pets allowed at the place. If there are any decent parties, we would need to be notified in advance and taken into confidence about it.
If this sounds like something that you're looking for, drop me or my roommate an email so that we can get the ball rolling.
Thanks.
Babur Khan

A Map of Dreams
All of us have interior worlds that can be made visible.
by David Hoffman
The summer after my freshman year of college, I worked in a shop that sold laminated plaques: posters mounted on pieces of wood. The place also did custom work at a factory off-site, and one of the perks of my minimum-wage job was that at the end of the summer I could bring in one of my own items to be mounted at the factory. From the first day, I knew that what I would have mounted was a map of my dreams. I spent many of my free moments that summer creating the map.
I had been drawing dream maps for several years. I started with the idea that all of my dreams took place in the same Dreamland. Many of my dreams unfolded in familiar venues like my home and schools, so I placed them all in Dreamland in their appropriate locations. For places that seemed to exist only in my dreams, I had to use my intuition to place them on a map. I felt empowered to do this in part because a character in one of my dreams had once turned to me just before I woke up and said, “Anything learned about dreams while dreaming is true.” I loved that.
When a single location had been the site of multiple dreams, I gave the dreams names, like the titles of stories. I drew pictures of the buildings and landmarks I remembered, imitating the styles of the maps associated with my favorite books, like Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings series and Stephen R. Donaldson’s Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever. I finished that summer’s dream map in August and waited a few anxious weeks for it to come back from the factory.
Now thirty more summers have passed, and while I continue to treasure the dream map hanging on my wall, I have drawn no more of them. In some ways it feels as though the whole dream mapping enterprise belongs to a more innocent time in my life, when the routines and expectations of adulthood were more distant.
Yet the deepest lessons from my dream mapping have stayed with me, and shape my work with students and colleagues at UMBC: All of us know things we sense are deeply important, but do not derive from textbooks and authorities, or rational calculation. All of us have interior worlds that can help shape the exterior world if we feel empowered to connect the two. All of us can be creators, if we dare to know that our stories matter, and are worth making visible.

Student-designed game to be sold on biggest gaming platform!
UMBC's HueBots is going to market, big-time.
We are so proud to hear that UMBC students are (once again) achieving entrepreneurial success. Check out what UMBC's Game Developer's Club is up to!!
The UMBC team that made it to the “final four” of college video game development is launching the game that took them there. HueBots earned praise at the Microsoft Imagine Cup worldwide technology competition last April in San Francisco. Now, after a vetting process that involved online voting, the game is set to be released August 26, 2015, on Steam, the biggest PC gaming platform in the world. It will also be available in Apple’s App Store, on GooglePlay, and on the HueBots’ website.
HueBots features friendly, colorful robots that players build and use to solve puzzles that revolve around the bots’ affinity for color-matched objects.
The Retriever team that developed the game includes lead Michael Leung ’16, computer science; Tad Cordle ’16, computer engineering; and Erika Schumacher ’17; and Jasmine Martin ’15, both visual arts students with interactive media concentrations. This summer Graham Dolle ’18, computer science, contributed special visual effects.
The team has developed versions of the game for PC, Mac, Android and iOS devices. The PC version of the game is priced at $4.99; the mobile version is $1.99.
To get word out, the team is tapping into YouTube’s Let’s Play channels as well as reaching out to video gaming websites and bloggers. HueBots was also featured at the Gamescape expo during Baltimore’s Artscape festival this July. Cordle expects the availability of the game on Steam will provide the biggest single boost for HueBots, and he shared his excitement that the Steam announcement came much sooner than expected.
The game is the first to come to market from UMBC’s Game Developer’s Club.
