The University System of Maryland encompasses 12 institutions, including UMBC, and two regional higher education centers. It employs more than 17,000 faculty members and 21,000 staff members, and owns almost 1,000 buildings. Its annual operating budget is more than $5 billion. There are more than 175,000 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at its various institutions. But only one of them gets to participate directly in the decisions of the Board of Regents, the system's governing body. Four times in the past 16 years, that one student--the Student Regent--has come from UMBC. Could you be next?
Please take a look at this description of the Student Regent position and application, and consider applying. Please also pass the information along to friends who may be interested. The student selected will serve from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020.
The application deadline is Tuesday, October 23rd at 5:00 P.M. Submit completed applications in hard copy to my mailbox in Commons 336, or email the application form and essays to me at dhoffman@umbc.edu. If you need more time to get the required letters of recommendation, let me know and we can arrange a separate due date for them.
I'm very happy to answer questions about the position and the process, so don't hesitate to contact me (dhoffman@umbc.edu) if you'd like to know more.
