          </span></div></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><div><div><span><span>A: </span><span>I love that I get to have meaningful conversations with students every day.  There is tremendous power in being able to tell one’s story (one of the many things I love about the process of counseling).  I love being in a position to help students tell their personal stories in a manner that confers dignity and helps students learn how to become the person they hope to become.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><div><div><span><br>

Currently I’m really into roasting my own coffee, duckpin bowling, and running. I think the next hobby I’ll pick up is going to be learning how to make a podcast. Someday I think it would be neat to explore creative with ways to promote well-being and mental health in downloadable/audio format.

  <Title>EBSCO Database Trials - ends April 30, 2011</Title>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>UMBC has trial access to the following EBSCO databases through April 30, 2011:</p>
    
    <p><strong><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?authtype=ip,uid&amp;profile=ehost&amp;defaultdb=poh" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Political Science Complete</a></strong><br>
    Political Science Complete™ (PSC) contains full text for more than 520 journals, and indexing and abstracts for over 2,900 titles, (including top-ranked scholarly journals), many of which are unique to the product. PSC has a worldwide focus, reflecting the globalization of contemporary political discourse.</p>
    
    <p>The database also features over 340 full-text reference books and monographs, and over 36,000 full-text conference papers, including those of the International Political Science Association. PSC includes a subject-specific thesaurus with over 17,500 terms (7,366 preferred and 10,175 non-preferred terms), to provide subject searching guidance to researchers.</p>
    
    <p><br>
    <strong><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?authtype=ip,uid&amp;profile=ehost&amp;defaultdb=p4h" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Public Affairs Index</a></strong><br>
    Public Affairs Index is a bibliographic database covering all aspects of national and global contemporary public policy issues ranging from public health, the environment, housing, human and civil rights, to international commerce and conflict.</p>
    
    <p>This database draws from a diverse array of scholarly journals, conference papers, trade publications and government documents to provide up-to-date information on a broad range of topics of concern to the world today. </p>
    
    <p><br>
    <strong><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?authtype=ip,uid&amp;profile=ehost&amp;defaultdb=swh" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Social Work Abstracts</a></strong><br>
    Social Work Abstracts offers extensive coverage of more than 900 social work and human services journals dating back to 1965. Produced by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), the database provides indexing and abstracts dealing with all aspects of the social work field, including theory and practice, areas of service and social issues and problems. Researchers seeking scholarly and professional perspectives on subjects such as therapy, education, human services, addictions, child and family welfare, mental health, civil and legal rights, and more will find Social Work Abstracts to be an indispensable resource. </p>
