Reflecting on Happy Mondays New graduates of UMBC in caps and gowns celebrate after the Commencement ceremony
New graduates of UMBC celebrate after the Commencement ceremony

Dear UMBC Community,

When I started these Happy Monday messages back in September, I did so in the spirit of trying something new.

As I reflect on how it has gone, and on the brilliant graduates we sent out into the world last week, along with our recent End-of-Semester Celebration for faculty and staff, I am reminded of why I send Happy Monday messages. It is not about showing things as easy or perfect, but about sharing back some of the inspiration and energy I receive every day from you. These messages are not meant to replace other communications. I will continue to share—via email, meetings, and in other ways—updates on the work we are doing, as I did in a campus message last week. Happy Monday messages are to be additive, a brief moment of celebration, expression of gratitude, or other personal perspective on UMBC, its mission, its people, and its impact.

I have heard from many of you that you appreciate these messages, so I will continue them in the spring semester. On occasion (as was the case last week), I may not send a Happy Monday message—if the volume of communications seems overwhelming, if some context (on or off campus) makes Happy Monday feel inappropriate, or for any number of other reasons. These messages will pause during January and resume at the start of the spring semester, still on Mondays, my favorite day of the week!

I leave you with these photos from last week’s Commencement, which are a beautiful reminder of why we are here and how much it matters.

Sincerely,

President Valerie Sheares Ashby

NESSies, we're late getting started, but it's easy to support your favorite nonprofits.  Use the link below and be sure to select "Non-SSO Login" when you sign in.  Deadline is coming soon!

Each year, through the Maryland Charity Campaign, faculty and staff join their colleagues across the state to support local nonprofits that serve those in need in our communities. This year's 2025 campaign runs through December 31. 

Last year, the state raised almost $2 million to support local nonprofits. At UMBC, faculty and staff donated over $140,000. 

We invite you to participate in this year's campaign by giving online and supporting an organization that is meaningful to you. You can make your donation using Maryland's secure online portal through payroll deduction or credit card. The portal also provides instructions for how to designate a nonprofit to receive your donation. (Please select "Non-SSO Login" to sign in.) 

Thank you in advance for your generosity and your support of our neighbors and fellow Marylanders. If you have any questions, please contact Kacey Hammel (khammel@umbc.edu) in the Office of the President.

Reframing Bloom's Taxonomy for the Age of AI

Blackboard White Papers and Research: From Insight to Impact
1:30-2:30 Monday, January 12, 2025, ENGR 102 at UMBC

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping education, challenging traditional frameworks like Bloom's Taxonomy, a hierarchical framework used in education to classify learning objectives and cognitive skills according to their level of complexity. Structured as a pyramid, it progresses from basic lower-order thinking, such as remembering facts, to higher-order skills like analyzing, evaluating, and creating new ideas.

This session introduces a reframed Bloom's Taxonomy that expands beyond "Create" to include a new Transform layer, enabling learners to apply knowledge for real-world and social impact. Expanding on the white paper Reframing Bloom's for the Age of AI, we'll share strategies for embedding AI literacy, fostering critical thinking, and driving academic innovation. 

Join this Instructional Technology session to discover how reframing Bloom's Taxonomy can help UMBC strengthen pedagogy, support academic innovation, and prepare future-ready graduates.

Deepen listening, dialogue, and community-building skills!
SOCY 396 is BACK!

Instructor Lori Hardesty, Associate Director of Community Engaged Learning, looks forward to returning to teach SOCY 396 in Spring 2026.  The course will take place in person on Tuesdays, 1-2:15pm.  Since she last taught the course in Fall 2024, Lori has deepened her skills and training in community-building and dialogue. She is a member of UMBC's Restorative Practices Steering Committee, and recently, UMBC's Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation (TRHT) Committee.  

Originally a part of the first 10 Campus Centers, UMBC is now one of 100+ Campus Centers dismantling systems and narratives that maintain racial hierarchy while cultivating spaces for authentic dialogue, trust, and repair.  

SOCY 396 Reflections on Service-Learning & Community Engagement: A Sociological Perspective

Course Description

Students participating in SOCY 396 will attain a greater understanding of their service-learning experience from a sociological perspective, particularly related to the concept of community, the media's role in society, and the connection of policy to service. This course in conjunction with The Shriver Center Community Engaged Learning's 096 Community Service & Learning, will strengthen students' ability to identify structures that uphold inequality, then take action to change them. Storytelling will serve as a powerful tool to change narratives and minds as students transition to employment and contribute to and with communities in meaningful ways.


Learning Outcomes: By the end of the semester, students will: 

  • Co-create welcoming spaces for growth and lean into learning and discomfort with open hearts and minds

  • Stretch their inquisitive minds, deepening self knowledge and understanding of one's own talents, interests, and goals 

  • See the world beyond their lived experiences and deepen their understanding of concepts such as community, policy, engagement, and service-learning

  • Explore systems of inequality and social injustice, as well as see opportunities to advocate for and lead change

  • Engage in discussions with others more often and more comfortably about the concepts  presented in the class; 

  • View their career goals with greater clarity as members practice collaboration with the community,

  • Present evidence of their learning through a creative expression project (of their choosing).
