Description
The original UMBC Magazine replaced the UMBC Review newsletter in Fall 1994. This iteration was only published a handful of times and ceased publication in 1998. The first edition of the alumni magazine as it is known today, also called UMBC Magazine, was published in Winter 2009 under the direction of Editor Richard Byrne '86, English. The magazine covers the accomplishments of faculty, staff, students, and alumni, and includes a popular column by President Freeman Hrabowski, Up On the Roof,” a nod to Hrabowski’s overlook from the roof of the Administration Building. The magazine also includes Class Notes - updates, honorifics, and photographs submitted by UMBC alumni through Retriever Net, the alumni web portal at alumni.umbc.edu.
