<Title>UMBC adds New AI-Powered Search Bar to myUMBC</Title>
<Tagline>Students can get personalized answers to searches</Tagline>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>UMBC's <a href="https://doit.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Department of Information Technology</a> (DoIT) has been exploring how new generative artificial intelligence systems can make the <a href="https://my.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>myUMBC</strong></a>  platform better for students, faculty, and staff, all while ensuring security and privacy. MyUMBC is a web portal that provides access to services and resources for the UMBC community of faculty, staff and students.</span></p>
    <p><span>The search system on MyUMBC now uses an AI model to  make it easier and quicker for students to find what they need with AI. This helps provide fast, accurate answers to common student questions.</span></p>
    <p><span>A key focus is helping students access important personal information—like grades, billing statements, and Retriever Card balances—right from the search bar. This means students can find what they need quickly, without having to dig through the system, while knowing their data is protected.</span></p>
    <p><span><img src="https://ai.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/734/2025/02/myumbc.png" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></span></p>
    <p><span>DoIT is looking at how AI can further improve the myUMBC experience, from academic support to campus life to create a more efficient and personalized platform. </span></p>
    <p>Currently answers are focused on student-related questions and scenarios with supporting questions from faculty and staff still in development. Students are advised to verify any information before they take action. If you identify any mistakes, please let the developers know using the “Was this useful” feature at the bottom of each answer.</p>

<Tagline>No General Body Meeting on Tuesday this week</Tagline>

    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Welcome to Week 1 of Tabletop Gaming Club for the Spring 2025 Semester!</span></p>
    <p><span>First and foremost, I would like to thank all of you for electing me to the role of interim Vice President, it is an honor to have the privilege of serving the club in Matt's stead, and I promise I will do my absolute best to fulfill this role. </span></p>
    <p><span>Unfortunately, our first official meeting must be postponed due to inclement weather. We really do not want any UMBC students, let alone our own club members, getting hurt or otherwise out in the ice and snow. Please do not try to come to the club room today, it will not be open, and no officers will be present. </span></p>
    <p><span>However, because we do not want to completely lose out on a day of club, I will be hosting a virtual game night through the club discord server. Starting around 7:00 pm, I will open a few new Voice Channels and Text Channels temporarily for a virtual club meeting. You can feel free to join various  VCs to play games supported by discord or join in on Jackbox games hosted by yours truly. </span></p>
    <p><span>Please stay warm and stay safe! Have a great week, and game on!</span></p>

<Title>GESTAR II Seminar Series, Thurs February 13th, 1:00pm</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Join us for a virtual seminar by <a href="https://www.nwra.com/people/241/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Dr. Gloria Manney</a>, Senior Research Scientist, NorthWest Research Associates (NWRA). Her talk is titled "<span>Linking a Polar Vortex Centered View of Stratospheric Circulation to Upper Tropospheric Circulation and Composition</span>."</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Date and Time: Thursday, February 13, 2025 at 1:00pm EST</div>
    <div>Join us via <a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NThmZjcwYzktZTBiZi00NDk5LWEwMzMtNzMzYmExZTVhYzIw%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%227005d458-45be-48ae-8140-d43da96dd17b%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22c58e54ca-3561-4059-bb24-a8af64733329%22%7d" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Teams</a>.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><u>Abstract:</u></div>
    <div>"While impacts of broad measures of stratospheric polar vortex strength on climate and extreme weather events have been widely studied, less attention has been given to the impacts of stratospheric polar vortex variations on upper troposphere / lower stratosphere (UTLS) circulation and composition and how the UTLS contributes to that stratospheric influence on the surface. This talk uses diagnostics of stratospheric polar vortex geometry / strength, regionally and seasonally varying characterization of tropopauses and UTLS jets, and tropospheric “weather regimes” to show links between stratospheric polar vortex variability and regional variations in UTLS circulation, including jet and tropopause characteristics. Results will show UTLS jet and tropopause characteristics for strong and weak stratospheric vortex states (defined using vortex-focused metrics that are less dependent on geometry and position than commonly used diagnostics) and regional variations in correlations between polar vortex and jet diagnostics, as well as jet and tropopause variations in different weather regimes. Preliminary work will be shown assessing impacts of these vortex and UTLS circulation relationships on regional UTLS ozone and water vapor variations diagnosed from composition reanalysis and satellite datasets."</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><u>Biography:</u></div>
    <div>From Dr. Manney: "I got my PhD in Physics in 1988 at Iowa State University studying "Barotropic Stability of Stratospheric States". I went to JPL soon after that, moving to NorthWest Research Associates in 2012; I’ve been an adjunct Professor of Physics at New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMT) since 2005. Since the Upper Atmosphere Research satellite launch in late 1991 I've spent much of my career working as part of the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) Science team, primarily focusing on stratospheric dynamics and composition, with an increased focus on upper troposphere / lower stratosphere dynamics and composition in the past 10-15 years. Since 2015, I have been a co-lead of the SPARC Reanalysis Intercomparison Project (now the APARC Reanalysis Intercomparison Project). I am a Fellow of the American Meteorological Society and of the Royal Meteorological Society, and have over 250 peer-reviewed publications, 62 as lead author."</div>
