    <div>UMBC's first Quadmania happened in 1981. Over 600 people gathered together on the Quad to listen to various local bands. The event was meant to be a step towards bringing concerts to UMBC and it proved successful. Quadmania continued to be celebrated on the Quad until it was moved to the RAC where it is now held currently. Performers at UMBC's Quadmania over the years have included <a href="http://contentdm.ad.umbc.edu/cdm/ref/collection/Retriever/id/1615" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Kanye West (2004)</a>, <a href="http://contentdm.ad.umbc.edu/cdm/ref/collection/Retriever/id/12087" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (2013)</a>, <a href="http://contentdm.ad.umbc.edu/cdm/ref/collection/Retriever/id/10817" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Snoop Dogg (2011)</a>, and most recently, <a href="http://retrieverweekly.umbc.edu/fetty-wap-concert/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Fetty Wap</a>. </div>

  <Title>Happy 25th Birthday Women&#8217;s Center at UMBC!</Title>

    <p><strong>UMBC isn’t the only one with a<a href="http://50.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> big anniversary milestone</a> this year (#UMBC50 #UMBCproud)!  The Women’s Center is also in the spirit of celebration because this year we turn 25 years old! That’s right – the Women’s Center is half as young as UMBC itself! </strong></p>

    <p>The Women’s Center opened in 1991. The same year <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anita_Hill" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Anita Hill’s</a> testimony allowed so many other women to be brave in sharing their stories of sexual harassment. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelma_%26_Louise" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><em>Thelma and Louise</em> </a>took to the big screen. The internet was also opened up to commercial use for the first time ever (which of course would become a hugely important space for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth-wave_feminism" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">feminist activism</a> in years to come). Great social change for women, LGBTQ folks, and other underrepresented populations has happened over the past 25 years across the globe, in our nation, and on our very own campus. The Women’s Center is proud to be a part of the social change in advancing gender equity and social justice. We still have a long way to go and the work is never done, but in this special year, we’ll take a pause to look back on our achievements.</p>
    <p>Over the next year, we’ll be celebrating both UMBC and the Women’s Center’s special milestones. As a lead up to <a href="http://50.umbc.edu/celebrate/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC’s 50th Anniversary Weekend event</a>s, <strong>the Women’s Center will be hosting a</strong> <strong><a href="http://my.umbc.edu/groups/womenscenter/events/41480" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">25th Birthday Party </a>on September 13th from 4-6pm</strong>. Please join us!</p>

    <p>We’ll  be active on social media to help tell the story and importance of the Women’s Center over the past 25 years. We’ll also be working on two special blog feature to include a <em>Then vs. Now</em> series and <em>Where Are They Now?</em> series following former Women’s Center staff. Be sure to follow us on all of our social media platforms and join in on the fun by using #UMBCWC25 to share your own memories, stories, and photos of your time being a part of the Women’s Center at UMBC community.</p>

  <Title>Researcher of the Week: Matthew Kovarek</Title>
  <Tagline>Undergraduate researchers explore their interests!</Tagline>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Meet Matt,</div>
    <div>He is a Chemical Engineering major, a NIST Scholar and a presenter at URCAD 2016. Matthew also volunteered his time as a Peer Alumni from Community Colleges, assisting potential students from Anne Arundel Community College to UMBC. And he served in the Air Force for three years. (Thank you for your service!) </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>His research focused upon the development of an alternative method for heat transfer to chill hot wort in the brewing process. Efficient heat transfer is necessary to ensure an adequate cold break for a clear and flavorful product. The cold break is a group of proteins that must be thermally shocked to precipitate out of solution. An ice bath is not sufficient to obtain an efficient cold break, so alternative methods must be explored.</div>
