          <div><strong>Internship experience</strong></div>This summer, Mary interned full-time at Ecolab and worked as an Engineering Technical Sales intern for their water treatment company, Nalco Water. Mary learned about boilers, cooling towers, and wastewater systems, and about the chemicals and techniques used to treat them. Mary worked in their Food and Beverage Manufacturing division and had the opportunity to visit plants all over Central Pennsylvania testing and treating water.  Also, Mary created projects to save water, that once implemented, will save over 5 million gallons a year for just one site! <br><blockquote><blockquote><br></blockquote></blockquote>

          <div><br></div>
          <div><strong>What advice would you give to students interested in internships?</strong></div>
          <div>"Take every opportunity to learn more about companies and internship programs. I found this internship through a recruiting event at a SWE conference and learning more about the company and getting to know the people working there allowed me to have this awesome experience" </div>
          <div><br></div>
          <div><strong>What are your plans after graduation?</strong></div>
          <div>"To continue to work in the industry to save water and improve the environment"</div>
          <div><br></div>
          <div>Way to go Mary! Keep up the great work and continue to positively impact the world!</div>

          <div><span><span><strong>Student Virtual Parking Permits Now Available!</strong></span> <br></span></div>
          <div><span>Dear Students,<br> <br>UMBC virtual parking permits are now available for all new and returning students. All students are required to activate a new virtual on-campus parking permit each August. Please do not sign up for a visitor account; UMBC does not issue parking permits for visitors.<br></span></div>
          <ul>
          <li><span><strong>New Students</strong>: Please go to the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/385d0i/rz6uebc/rvr098" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC Parking Services Portal</a>, register your vehicle(s), and activate your virtual permit.<br></span></li>
          <li><span><strong>Returning Students</strong>: Please go to the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/385d0i/rz6uebc/7ns098" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC Parking Services Portal</a> to review your account for any outstanding fines, verify/update your vehicle information, and activate your new virtual permit. <br></span></li>
          </ul>
          <div><span>Parking enforcement will begin on August 31; those who park on campus without a valid permit will be issued a citation.<br> <br><strong>Registering your vehicle is not the same as getting a permit.</strong> Once vehicles are registered, please click on the "Get Permit" button. Parking permits must be renewed every August prior to the start of the new academic year. You may register up to three vehicles. However, you may only have one vehicle on campus at a time. Once you have registered your vehicle, please click on the "Get Permit" button. Failure to complete this step means no permit has been issued to you and as a result, you may be issued a citation.<br> <br><strong>Parking Permit Overview</strong><br><a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/385d0i/rz6uebc/ngt098" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Student parking permits</a> are assigned as follows:<br></span></div>

    <p>The annual <a href="https://nsa-codebreaker.org/home" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>NSA Codebreaker Challenge</strong></a> consists of a series of tasks that are worth a varying amount of points based on their difficulty. Schools will be ranked according to the total number of points accumulated by their students. Solutions may be submitted at any time for the duration of the Challenge, which will end early in January.</p>
    <p>The initial tasks are divided into two sequences, A and B, which can be solved independently. Later tasks may rely on the results of earlier tasks. While not required, we recommend that you solve tasks in order since they flow with the storyline and may, in fact, be unsolvable without the information recovered from previous tasks.</p>
    <p>Each task in this year’s challenge will require a range of skills. It starts with easy tasks but advances to harder ones, so it’s a great learning experience even if you are just learning about cybersecurity. To solve all of the tasks, you will need to call upon all of your technical expertise, your intuition, and your common sense. </p>
    <p>Getting started is easy.  Go to the <a href="https://nsa-codebreaker.org/challenge" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>challenge webpage</strong></a>, and create an account using your UMBC email address.  After you’ve verified your email address, you will get an invitation to join the Discord server.  Joining will earn you (and UMBC) your first point!</p>
