To All Students:

Election years are particularly exciting times for students of Political Science, and also offer unique opportunities to participate directly in the field of our study. To this end, the Department of Political Science has posted and emailed several notices regarding internship opportunities for various local campaigns. We have posted these for the purpose of making students aware of potentially educational and professionally advantageous opportunities. We have postedevery such opportunity that candidates or members of candidates' campaigns have sent us, and in most cases, using the campaigns' own wording.

At no time should any message written, posted, or forwarded by us be construed as advocacy or endorsement of any campaign, candidate, organization, or party. Doing so would be inappropriate for a state-funded educational institution such as UMBC, and we apologize if anyone has taken any of our messages as representing the views or opinions of the Department of Political Science, any of its staff or faculty members, or the university community.

For any student or campaign wishing to notify us of any political internship or volunteer opportunity, we ask that you refrain from any partisan or subjective wording in your message, or any language that can be construed as a campaign advertisement rather than a simple notification. Previous postings that have contained language that could be perceived to constitute an endorsement have been removed from the Political Science myUMBC group.

Once again, we apologize for any confusion we may have caused, and thank you for your understanding as we strive to provide you with all the opportunities our exciting region offers.

With best regards,
Laszlo Korossy

thumbnailCraig Rozynski may have taken on the mother of all type design challenges with his creation Comic Neue; a revival of the world’s most hated typeface.

His first type design project, Rozynski’s Comic Neue loses the pretence of unevenness that the original Comic Sans employed. But Rosynski has succeeded at keeping Comic Neue friendly and approachable.

Rozynski’s produced two variants, the second being Comic Neue Angular, which has angular terminals instead of round. With light, regular, and bold weights, as well obliques, there are currently a total of twelve faces. The complete family is free to download right now.

Comic Sans gets a facelift

As much as we love to rip poor Comic Sans, one of its greatest aesthetic offenses has little to do with its design. Our collective resentment—which extends well past the design community—has more to do with its misuse, which is why you may want to employ this new incarnation with restraint.

Comic Sans isn’t the only typeface open to misuse of course; is anybody else feeling a growing unease about the proliferating use of otherwise-exquisite Gotham? It’s been spotted on U.S. movie trailers, Discovery Channel and Cartoon Network logos, every other movie poster, and Wendy’s fast food to-go bags. If you are as irked, you’ll appreciate what can happen to any typeface when it’s used without thought, and way too often.

For one last dose of irony, this Wall Street Journal article reports that Comic Sans creator, Vincent Connare, produced his design in response to overuse of Times New Roman.

It will be interesting to see how Comic Neue fares. Since it’s free, it has the potential to get around… but at least for now, it’s not shipping with a popular operating system.

Don’t miss the expert appraisal tweeted from Connare himself, near the bottom of the Comic Neue download page.
