REMINDER: Women of Color Reception For self-identified women of color in the UMBC community! Join Campus Life's Mosaic and the Women's Center for the Women of Color Reception TODAY at 4pm in the Skylight Room! 

We're celebrating a new school year at UMBC, and we want to bring together UMBC's women of color students, staff, and faculty to snack, share, and network among one another! If you identify as a woman of color, you are invited to help build a strong foundation for the coming school year. 

This year, we are honored to host two keynote speakers:  
Candace Dodson-Reed, '96, Chief of Staff in the President's Office at UMBC
Yoo-Jin Kang, '15, Coordinator for Alcohol and Other Drugs in American University's Health Promotion & Advocacy Center.

Candace and Yoo-Jin will speak on the theme of women of color "Telling Our Stories." This year, we are inspired by the recent revival of the Telling Our Stories project, and hope to continue encouraging women of color to speak truth to power through their own unique experiences and perspectives.

Hope to see you there!

Check out her internship with the 9:30 Club!

Name: Gabrielle Franks

Internship, Co-op or Research Site: I.M.P. / 9:30 Club

Position Title: Marketing Intern

Major(s)/Minor(s): Music Technology

Work Term: Summer 2019 

Tell us about your internship, co-op, or research opportunity, including your day-to-day responsibilities.

As an intern for 9:30 Club, I mainly conducted research regarding concert production with a focus on marketing and promotions. I assisted the promotions department in and out of the office, interacting with the music and fans alike; this included getting to work at tables for concerts at The Anthem, Merriweather Post Pavilion, and Lincoln Theater! My favorite show that I attended through my internship was Billie Eilish at The Anthem.

Describe the process of obtaining your position. When did you hear of the position and submit your application?

I originally reached out to Matt Doherty - my supervisor, and the person who runs the internship program at the 9:30 Club - in March of 2019, and asked about any opportunities that they had for the summer. He was eager to send me all of the information and was happy to answer my questions about the position. Once I submitted my application, they took about 3 or 4 weeks to review it and emailed me with an offer for an interview. Following the interview, they emailed me after about a week to extend an offer for an internship position to me!

What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization? 

The relaxed environment! There's not a very strict dress code, the faces in the office were always friendly, and I met some really interesting people through the program that I wouldn't have met otherwise.

How do you believe you have made an impact through your work?

I contributed in various ways to the work that the office completed this summer, but I really enjoyed getting to create media content for the advertising team. I was able to create video montages to post online in order to promote various shows which was super fun and a great creative outlet for me. 

What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience? 

Make friends! Making contacts is so important, especially in the marketing realm - reach out to people, invite them to coffee, and don't be afraid to make genuine connections with your peers!

Also, the Career Center has been a great resource as a student and as an intern. Getting feedback on resume building and receiving advice via email throughout the summer as an internship practicum student was super motivating and acted as a reminder for me to make sure I got as much out of this summer experience as possible.

The end is in sight! If you've earned 90 or more academic credits, you received a message from the Registrar's Office informing you that you are eligible to apply for graduation. 

However, eligibility is only the start of the graduation application process. Below are four simple steps you can take now to ensure that you’ll soon be shaking hands with Dr. Hrabowski as you receive your UMBC diploma. 

Note: Even if you do not plan to attend the commencement ceremony, you still need to apply to graduate in order to earn your degree. 

Step 1: Apply for Graduation! 

Sunday, September 15th is the last day undergraduates can apply for December Graduation.  

Only those students who have every single requirement needed for degree completion on their fall semester schedules will be permitted to participate in the Commencement ceremony. 

If you are taking a course at another institution that you plan to transfer, you must have an approved Verification of Transferability form on file with the Registrar’s Office and be prepared to submit a copy of your schedule. 

Step 2: Embrace your degree audit! 

Your degree audit indicates your progress toward degree completion. If you see “unsatisfied” items, these are requirements that appear to be missing and need to be addressed immediately. Your degree audit is located on myUMBC, under the guide link “Advising and Student Support.” 

Make sure any substitutions or waivers of major requirements are documented in your degree audit; you may need to submit a Help/RT ticket to the Registrar’s Office to add these notations to your record.  

Step 3: Wrap up any outstanding details ASAP! 

If you have Advanced Placement or CLEP scores, transfer transcripts, foreign language waivers, or other items you need to provide to UMBC, delay no longer!  If the major, minor, or certificate program on your record is out of date, or if you have additional majors or minors that you need to remove, submit a new Declaration of Major form.  Any of these items could prevent you from being able to graduate. 

Step 4: Let the celebration begin! 

Participating in the commencement ceremony and other celebratory activities on campus is the culmination of all of your hard work. Take time to recognize all it took to get you to this moment and be proud of your accomplishments!  

Finally, use this link to check your Honors eligibility, which will be recognized at the ceremony and on your diploma.
