Got Linux? If you’ve ever wanted to try Linux but didn’t know where to start, bring your computer to the Linux Installfest this Friday, March 13 between noon and 5:00pm at the UMBC Commons Mainstreet.  Having Linux on your own computer will give you more control and is a great learning experience.  You can also replicate the environment found on UMBC’s servers (e.g., gl.umbc.edu) which will make doing your homework on them easier.

The UMBC Linux Users Group (LUG) will hold a Linux Install Fest from Noon to 5:00pm on Friday, March 13 on Main Street in the Commons. Experts will help you install a free copy of Linux on your computer using any of several options — dual boot, virtual and more. LUG members can also advise you about the hundreds of legal, free apps available for many Linux versions.

See the LUG site for more information and pictures from previous LUG Installfest. You might also want to join UMBC’s LUG — join the LUG mailing list to get news and reminders of their regular meetings

Contact the LUG faculty adviser, Jon Squire (squire at csee.umbc.edu) with burning questions.

Meet Kelsey. She is an Interdisciplinary Studies major, a URA Scholar and a McNair Scholar Scholar. She is also the current Director of Just Food UMBC, one of the co-founders of The Garden, and a student representative on the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee. Kelsey transferred to UMBC in the fall of 2012 from West Valley Community College in San Jose, California. She plans to continue her education by pursuing a doctoral degree in public health. Once she completes her formal education she want to work domestically on the topic of malnutrition.

How did you find your mentor for your research project?
In the summer of 2013 I dug myself into UMBC’s conversation about food, which led to many interactions with my mentor, Jill Wrigley. Over time our relationship developed and similar interests provided more than enough work. Jill also serves as the faculty advisor for The Garden and I serve as the Vice President of Academics. The Garden participants will have the option of joining my study.

How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?
At first it was not what I wanted to do, which I think is an important point to make for those interested in research. My past research focused on adolescent girls with nutrition deficiencies, which I hoped to continue. As my mentors, Jill Wrigley, Dr. Luis Pinet-Peralta and Dr. Esther Fleischmann, and I worked through the feasibility of projects I proposed we eventually agreed working with college students would be the best option. Few research projects were published about the nutritional standing of college students or effective interventions, which allowed me to create a meaningful study.

Is this your first independent research project?
This is not my first research project. My first research project was titled From Food Deserts to Community Gardens, Urban Girls Need for Produce. The project was funded by the McNair Summer Research Institute at UMBC and completed in the summer of 2013. I worked with Dr. Pinet-Peralta in the Sociology and Anthropology department, who continues to serve as a resource on my URA project.

Do you get course credit for this work?
I received 3 independent study units for my previous project along with a financial stipend.

How much time do you put into it?
Preparation for the project took 5-10 hours per week from January to May. The project itself took 20-30 hours per week from May to July. Finalizing the project and getting ready to present and publish at various conferences took a total of 40 hours spread out from August to November.

How did you hear about the Undergraduate Research Award (URA) program?
I first heard about the Undergraduate Research Award during a session about funding research projects put on by the McNair Scholars Program. After that I noticed advertisements for URA all over the campus from spotlights to researcher profiles.

Was the application difficult to do?
I did not find the application itself difficult, as it mirrors the grant proposal process. For me, the challenge was designing a feasible and meaningful research project. I have learned with the help of Dr. Pinet-Peralta the importance of mapping out all of the methods and being aware of the project limitations.

How much did your mentor help you with the application?
Jill Wrigley helped me design the project for hours and hours and then approved the finalized application. She also took time to write a meaningful recommendation letter. Being a URA mentor is a time commitment, and I am thankful to Jill Wrigley for all the time she has spent with me.

What has been the hardest part about your research? 
The hardest part has been creating a nutrition guide that can be backed by existing information and is artistic. Some of the information has become second nature for me as I have studied it in class and in research for 3 years, but now I have to go back and provide resources for each claim I make. Plus I am not savvy with digital art, so I have learned quite a bit.

What was the most unexpected thing?
The project currently does not have participants (still in IRB review) and I have not experienced anything unexpected yet.

How does your research relate to your work in other classes?
My research project is also my degree capstone project.

What else are you involved in on campus?
I am the Vice President of Academics and co-founder of The Garden, student representative on the Interdisciplinary Studies Committee, a McNair Scholar, and am teaching a class for SUCCESS students this fall.

What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research? 
Be open, do your homework, and relish the opportunity to work with your mentor.

What are your career goals?
I plan to continue my education by pursuing a doctoral degree in public health. Once done with my doctoral level I want to work domestically on the topic of malnutrition.

So after the longest run of any woman in the history of the United States Congress, Senator Barbara Mikulski of Maryland is retiring after this 114th Congress in 2017. And for some reason, I am feeling some sort of way about it.

I have been incensed to write this ever since Senator Mikulski’s retirement announcement, not because she is my policy-making idol or someone who defines what feminism looks like for me. To be quite honest, I have not followed her every vote, nor her every speech. But there’s something to Senator Mikulski that I have always looked up to. She is a symbol to me—a symbol of a woman who is not afraid to take up space. A symbol I have always needed.

On the right, Barbara Mikulski in 1994.

Senator Mikulski has always been known to me as a woman who has stomped forward and demanded her due. Who attested to being “one of those emotional women” on the Senate floor while arguing for pay equity; who, early in her career, was the only other percentage point of women in the U.S. Senate. Women I know, admire, and who inspire me daily—my mother being one of them—have always touted her as their own “shero.” Why? Because, Senator Mikulski did not try to maintain a new sense of subtlety or feminine gentleness when she got to the Senate—no, she made her bombastic nature her signature. Something that just was her essence. She was fiery and passionate about issues, and that’s where her political energy came from.

And it’s not only her personality, but it’s the fact that Barbara Mikulski is also no waif. And I mean no disrespect to the Senator at all—rather, I mean only respect. This woman is small and sturdy. She is not the Claire Underwood or Olivia Pope on our television, but the 4’11” juggernaut who wears pants on the Senate floor when she goddamn feels like it. Senator Mikulski’s visage, like her personality, is unapologetic.

And as a woman who can’t stop muttering “I’m sorrys” to every person who accidentally(?) pushes me on the sidewalk, I need that symbol of unabashed space taking up-ness that Senator Mikulski has always been for me. As a woman who does have wide-set shoulders, wide-set hips, and a loud, wide way of talking about what thing is making her angriest, I need to know that I can succeed with that. As a woman who has always had her fire for social justice doused by naysayers or “realists,” I need someone who is bent on raising hell till her and her loved ones get the rights they deserve. And finally, as a woman who has struggled with body, intelligence, and political insecurity in a patriarchal world, Senator Mikulski has always been somebody who I would look to when I was down, and realize, “I can take up this space, because I deserve it and I am more than worthy.”  

I hope that anybody reading this who faces similar or maybe even more complex insecurities than I do, can hopefully treat this post as a push towards finding that someone—be they a celebrity, a politician, or a peer in class—who makes you realize you are worthy of the skin you’re in and the space you inhabit. Maybe they do it through their ferocity (like my Senator Barb), their creativity, their stoicism, but either way, they help you to be you to the fullest, and they awaken the opportunity to celebrate yourself and the uniqueness that makes you you. Because sometimes, in our weakest moments, all we need is to feel inspired to know that we are worthy.

*And here is my disclaimer on “problematic faves”: I am often one of the first to recognize the problematic nature of anything that exists in the world. It’s not that I am trying to be a dark shadow, a pox upon the happiness of all the smiling people in the room. No, rather, it is simply a personal habit of mine to critically analyze something until its not fun any more (I’ll do it to the Oscars, I’ll do it to your fave, and I’ll keep doing it, I tell you). However, I wanted to add this disclaimer, because I know that Senator Barbara Mikulski has done and said what are probably problematic things to many. I’m certain I could find hurt in what she’s said if I read enough, but I also am not going to let that ruin this moment. I am going to bask in that Senator Barbara Mikulski Sun that always makes me feel like I can carpe all the diems, and I am going to feel positive about it.
