UMBC undergraduates interested in the Grand Challenge Scholars Program are encouraged to attend a symposium and recruiting event at 1:00pm on Friday, February 17.
The Grand Challenge Scholars Program is a program for undergraduates in all majors who are interested in thinking about big problems facing society, and how to solve them from broad, multidisciplinary perspectives. Students select one of 14 Grand Challenges identified by the National Academy Engineering, and work within the cohort of Grand Challenge Scholars to identify and pursue experiences related to their Grand Challenge in five program areas: research, interdisciplinary, entrepreneurship, global, and service.
To launch the upcoming spring application period for UMBC students entering the program, there will be a Grand Challenge Symposium on February 17, 2017, from 1-2:30 pm on the 7th floor of the Library. The symposium will feature 14 UMBC faculty members who will give two minute “mini-talks” on their research as it relates to the 14 Grand Challenges. The event will also showcase some of the work of the current Grand Challenge Scholars, and we will offer light refreshments.
Students who are interested in applying to the Grand Challenge Scholars Program are especially encouraged to attend, as are faculty and staff who have an interest in any of the Grand Challenges or would simply like to learn more about the program. More information about the program is available on the UMBC Grand Challenge Scholars Program Web site and applications are due on April 1.
Course instructors or TAs can arrange for a program representative come to their class to share information about the program by contacting Prof. *protected email* or *protected email*.
Please RSVP for the event, follow the Grad Challenges MyUMBC group and contact *protected email* if you have any questions or comments about the program.

February is National African American/Black History Month!
ASALH National Theme & Executive Summary
Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH)
The Crisis in Black Education
Executive Summary 2017
The theme for 2017 focuses on the crucial role of education in the history of African Americans.
ASALH’s founder Carter G. Woodson once wrote that “if you teach the Negro that he has
accomplished as much good as any other race he will aspire to equality and justice without
regard to race.” Woodson understood well the implications associated with the denial of access
to knowledge, and he called attention to the crisis that resulted from persistently imposed racial
barriers to equal education. The crisis in black education first began in the days of slavery when
it was unlawful for slaves to learn to read and write. In pre-Civil War northern cities, free blacks
were forced as children to walk long distances past white schools on their way to the one school
relegated solely to them. Whether by laws, policies, or practices, racially separated schools
remained the norm in America from the late nineteenth century well into our own time.
Throughout the last quarter of the twentieth century and continuing today, the crisis in black
education has grown significantly in urban neighborhoods where public schools lack resources,
endure overcrowding, exhibit a racial achievement gap, and confront policies that fail to deliver
substantive opportunities. The touted benefits of education remain elusive to many blacks of all
ages. Tragically, some poorly performing schools serve as pipelines to prison for youths.
Yet, African American history is rich in centuries-old efforts of resistance to this crisis: the
slaves’ surreptitious endeavors to learn; the rise of black colleges and universities after the Civil
War; unrelenting battles in the courts; the black history movement; the freedom schools of the
1960s; and local community-based academic and mentorship programs that inspire a love of
learning and thirst for achievement. Addressing the crisis in black education should be considered one of the most important goals in America’s past, present, and future.

ALERT: On-Campus Summer Internship Scam
Classroom Presentations to Collect Your Information
The Career Center has been alerted by a UMBC student that individuals have been making classroom presentations highlighting the opportunity to work for an organization listed on the Princeton Review Top 100 List of Internships this summer.
Research into this claim has resulted in learning that this may be a pyramid scheme. If you provided personal information to this company and are contacted by them, please proceed with caution as we do not believe this is a valid opportunity.
Students seeking summer internships should use the services provided by the UMBC Career Center and plan to attend the Spring Career & Internship Fair that will be held on February 17 (snow date February 24), 11:30 - 3:30, in the RAC.

These career fairs are specifically geared towards helping you find jobs with employers who are looking to hire. UMBC has it's Spring Career and Internship Fair coming up later this month, but there are also career fairs meant for students held off campus!
The BEYA Stem Conference is a career fair tailored towards those receiving degrees in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines.

The Conference is the perfect place for you to find a job and learn about graduate school, but also help you develop your networking skills.
