The GSA is seeking senior-level undergraduates and post-baccalaureate students with an interest in biomedical research or public health. Undergraduate Outreach Day will be held on Tuesday, March 20, 2012 in the West Basic Sciences Building. The newest addition to Meharry’s Research Week, UGO is an opportunity for prospective students to network with Meharry graduate students and faculty, and learn not only about our current research focuses, but also about the graduate student experience at Meharry. Undergraduate Outreach Day is designed to encourage students, especially underrepresented minorities and women, to pursue careers in health-based research careers. During UGO, students will have the opportunity to attend workshops about the different programs and career tracks in basic research and health services administration in the public and private sector; experience a graduate level lecture; receive a tour of Meharry; apply to either of Meharry’s programs (if eligible and they have the necessary paperwork); and speak one-on-one with current Meharry students and faculty.

Established in 1876, Meharry Medical College is the nation’s largest private, independent, historically black academic health center dedicated solely to educating minority and other health professionals. Meharry offers a Master’s of Science in Public Health and a Doctorate in Biomedical Sciences in addition to the Doctor of Medicine and Doctor of Dental Surgery degrees.

I’m asking some of the people you might encounter on the UMBC campus, including students, faculty, staff and alumni, to answer a few questions about themselves and their experiences. These are their responses.

Name: Brandon Wright

Hometown: Baltimore, Maryland

Q: How long have you been at UMBC?

A: This is the second semester of my 4th year at UMBC

Q: What is your current title (job or student organization position)?

A: I'm the Student Assistant Team Leader in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Orientation, the Internal Organization Coordinator for the Leadership Consultants, and an IHU Peer Mentor here at UMBC.

Q: In 12 words or less, what role(s) do you play on campus? 

A: I help prospective and new students discover what makes UMBC unique.

Q: What aspect of your UMBC role(s) do you enjoy most?

A:  I love being a part of the Admissions and Orientation experience at UMBC. In the Admissions office, I could meet a student while giving a tour, assist them as they fill out an application, walk them through the enrollment and orientation process, and then help them learn more about UMBC during Welcome Week. In order to find our place at UMBC, we all had to start at the beginning and that's where I come in. I like being one of the first faces [or voices] that a student can use as a reference point to ask about everything UMBC related.

Q: What is the most important or memorable thing you learned in college/have learned at UMBC?

A:  It's so easy to get comfortable with where you are after accomplishing a set of goals. What I’ve learned is that after you achieve one series of goals, it’s best to create a whole new list of things to accomplish so you never stay content with where you are. I’ve applied this to my grades, involvement, and daily tasks. In order to be the best at what I do, I have to keep chasing goals, and setting the bar higher for myself every chance I get.

Q: Complete this sentence: "I am a big fan of __________"

A:  Watching Scrubs, the Orioles, the arts, Childish Gambino, and random acts of kindness.

Q: Do you have any UMBC stories, little-known facts about UMBC, favorite spots on campus, or anything else you’d like to share?

A: I was excited to see that UMBC booked Donald Glover for Homecoming '11 because I've been a big fan of his for a while now. When I got to show and he arrived on stage, I noticed that we were wearing the exact same thing, except he had on a cardigan, and, coincidentally, I had on the same blue hoodie that he was wearing on the front page of his website at the time.

After the show, I left the RAC and I kept noticed people around me doing double takes as I walked through the crowd with my friend. I kept hearing whispers saying, ""is that Donald?"" and ""wasn't Donald just on stage?"" As I walked over to Outtakes in the dining hall after the show, everyone I walked past on the way kept doing double takes because they thought Donald Glover was just casually strolling around the UMBC campus.

As I'm about to go into Outtakes, this girl comes up behind me yelling, ""Donald! Donald Glover!"" It took a while to realize she was talking to me the entire time. I guess I should thank the UMBC community for helping me to realize that if this degree thing doesn't work out, I can always just be Donald Glover's stunt double.

BONUS VIDEO QUESTION: What else would you like to share? Ask yourself a question and answer it.
