Description
An account of the resource
UMBC's student body continued to grow throughout the 1980s, and by 1990 it had outgrown the University Center as the main student activity space. The administration decided to build the Commons—a collaboration between Perry Dean Rogers and Design Collective architectural firms. The new location, on the foundation of Gym I, would shift the center of campus life from academic row. The 143,000 square-foot building opened its doors to students a semester behind schedule in Spring 2002; however, it was only a partial opening as many spaces, such as the tiered plaza, were still under construction. Once finished, the Commons featured additional meeting and performing spaces, retail space, and study and leisure areas.
The building's design, featuring two large corridors that intersect at the center and the use of glass walls, earned an award from the Maryland Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.

Description
An account of the resource
In 1970, the Office of Residential Life was created at UMBC. The university's first residence hall, called Dorm I but now known as Susquehanna Hall, also opened to students that year. Susquehanna was followed by the openings of Dorm II (Chesapeake Hall) in 1971 and Dorm III (Patapsco Hall) in 1972. The West Hill and Terrace Communities were added in 1980 and 1981, and the Hillside Community opened in stages in 1986-1987. Other residences now include Potomac Hall, Harbor Hall, Erickson Hall, and the Walker Avenue apartments. Special lifestyle options and Living-Learning Communities that correspond to academic programs are also available. Residential Life at UMBC puts a particular emphasis on community, and seeks to provide facilities, services, and programs that support the academic mission of the institution and enhance the quality of life for students that live on campus."

Description
An account of the resource
Commencement at UMBC is a celebratory yet traditional affair. The faculty wear regalia denoting their academic field and graduate school, campus administrators and student leaders are on hand to offer inspiration and congratulations, and honorary degrees are awarded to notable men and women. Other traditional and frequently overlooked elements of commencement are the ceremonial batons and mace. These short wooden staffs are decorated with metal emblems and are carried by campus leaders that represent the students, staff, and faculty at UMBC. These representatives, or marshals, are traditionally the current Presidential Teaching Professor, representing the student community; the current Presidential Research Professor, representing the faculty; and the current Presidential Distinguished Staff members representing both Professional and Non-Exempt staff at UMBC. The mace, similar to the batons but a little larger, is carried by the Grand Marshal, typically the President of the Faculty Senate. The current mace was a gift from the Alumni Association in 1986 in honor of the 20th anniversary; similarly, the batons were gifts of the Alumni Association in 2006 in honor of the 40th anniversary. Before 2006, staff in the University Relations department designed and built the batons in-house.

The third and final phase was the construction of the Library Tower, completed in 1995. The tower serves as an emblem of the university, completing the vision of the campus master plan from 1965 that stated that the building will be viewed on axis from the main approach drive, appearing unquestionably as the major building on campus." Since the Library was designed to grow with the university, the tower also symbolized how far UMBC had come in 30 years. The opening of the tower was celebrated with UMBC's first MindFest, A Celebration of the Power of Ideas and Information," on November 11. Activities included family brunch, seminars, tours, an alumni bonfire, and a photography presentation in the newly renovated Library Gallery.

On April 4-5, 2008, hundreds of alumni, faculty and supporters joined to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Meyerhoff Scholarship Program. The gathering centered around a scientific symposium including oral and poster presentations, panel discussions, and video recording booths for alumni to talk about their experiences in the program. Director LaMont Toliver explained the distinguishing qualities of the program: Over the past 20 years, the program has created strong foundations in a number of areas including but not limited [to]: the sense of family, a culture of high expectations, and environment of positive peer pressure, collaborations with UMBC research faculty that include solid classroom instruction and lab experiences in a variety of areas, and finally, a legacy of excellence that began from the very beginning."

Even as the UC was opening, there was a clear need for additional space for student life at UMBC. Student needs seemed to outgrow the UC even before everyone had moved into the building, although it would be almost 20 years before the Commons opened to provide any relief. The staff of the University Center commemorated their time in the UC with this staff shirt in 2001. Some were even given out as gifts, including this one to then Library Director Dr. Larry Wilt for his on-going support.
