Great news from Joby Taylor, co-director of the Shriver Center:

UMBC's classification as a community engaged campus has been renewed for another 6 years! See the hot off the press announcement from Carnegie below with links to their press release. AND, here's a link to UMBC's announcement story...

More than anything, this designation reflects the heart and culture of our campus community, and energizes us to redouble our efforts to build authentic relationships and partnerships that courageously and collaboratively engage the questions and challenges of our day. As we move into this New Year, here's to ever deeper and impactful community engagement at UMBC!
