    <h5><em>Keeping the Girls in Stitches: Seventeenth-Century Women’s Embroidery as Biblical Commentary</em></h5>
    <p><strong><br></strong><strong>Michele Osherow</strong>, Associate Professor, English<br>Spring 2026 Residential Faculty Fellow<br><br>This research considers ways early modern women used their needles to engage with biblical text and characters, offering up alternative readings of narratives and challenging dominant interpretations head-on. Women’s embroidered pictures of the Bible were not bound to scriptural accuracy; they freely inserted characters into stitched scenes or juxtaposed narratives: what emerges is a stunning complexity of material very much in keeping with the textual intricacies of the Bible itself. I’ll demonstrate this with a few focused examples, showing how the needlework riffs on biblical narrative, religious commentary, and addresses social and political interests.</p>

  <Title>Candidate Endorsements Update</Title>
  <Body>
    <![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><p>Below you will find the current list of candidates with all of their approved endorsements for the SGA 2026 Elections. This list includes endorsements approved through 11:00am on April 1st. We will continue to make endorsement updates as they are approved by the Election Board Chair. <br><strong>Please note there are three kinds of possible endorsements:</strong></p>
    <ul>
    <li>Individual endorsements by an officer of a student organization;</li>
    <li>Student organization executive board endorsements (meaning, at a minimum, the president, vice president, and treasurer of the student org endorse the candidate);</li>
    <li>Student organization endorsements (meaning at least the majority of the student org membership endorses the candidate).</li>
    </ul>
    <p>As a result, you'll see different types of endorsements under the names of candidates. Some endorsements supersede others. If, for example, a student org officer endorsed a candidate <em>and</em> that entire student org/their executive board also endorsed the candidate, you will not see a separate line for the individual officer as they are implicitly included within a full org/eBoard endorsement. <br>Want to submit an endorsement? <a href="https://umbc.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8cTm4qfjqV9G5dY" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">You can do so at this link</a>. You must be an officer of a recognized UMBC student organization to be eligible to submit an endorsement. <br><strong>Presidential Candidates:</strong></p>
