Description
An account of the resource
In April 2004, the Erickson School of Aging Studies was established with support from John Erickson, who gave a $5 million commitment to the school. The goal of the Erickson School is to become the preeminent resource for education, research, and policy on services for the mid-life and older population.” Erickson is a hub for research activities on long-term care quality, consumer direction, and other topics exploring the policy and sociocultural dimensions of aging in our country. Through the Erickson School and the doctoral program in Gerontology (housed jointly at UMBC and the University of Maryland Graduate School, Baltimore), UMBC students and faculty have been able to contribute and bring greater visibility to aging-related issues of both local and national importance.

An account of the resource
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.

Faculty Diversity at UMBC

Description
An account of the resource
Although UMBC never had a segregated student body, whether by race or gender, our campus has struggled in many ways to increase its diversity of the student body. UMBC is now promoted as a diverse institution and this is part of the defining narrative of the school and a point of pride for many administrators, faculty, students, and alumni. UMBC has been recognized as having the second most diverse student body (Princeton Review, 2008) and as one of the top 25 most diverse national universities (U.S. News & World Report, 2012). What does a racially diverse student body mean at UMBC? During the 2014-2015 academic year, 44.2% of the student body self identified as white, 16.4% as African American or Black, 20% as Asian, 5.9% as Hispanic or Latino, and less than 1% self identified as American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander. Students that identify with two or more races made up 3.6% of the student body, while 4.8% did not self identify. International students were separated in this data and made up 4.6%. This data is distributed each year in several sources, including the annual Progress Report on Institutional Programs of Cultural Diversity, available through the Provost’s Office.
Diversity in the faculty communities at UMBC has continued to be a struggle. Faculty and staff at UMBC that self identify as white routinely make up about 70% of respondents. The administration and campus leaders have repeatedly tried to recruit a more diverse faculty, and most recently put in place several programs and initiatives to address this issue, including the Executive Committee for the Recruitment, Retention and Advancement of Underrepresented Minority Faculty, the UMBC OutList, and the UMBC Postdoctoral Fellows Program for Faculty Diversity which began in 2011.

The first annual Lavender Celebration, honoring LGBTQ graduates and campus allies, was held on May 1, 2014 and was coordinated by the Office of Student Life's Mosaic: Center for Culture and Diversity. The Mosaic works within the Office of Student Life to promote and foster a community of diversity and acceptance on campus. In addition to honoring graduating students, honors are also awarded to departments and faculty/staff allies; the 2014 recipients were The Women’s Center, the department of Gender & Women’s Studies, and GWST professor Dr. Kate Drabinski. The Queer Camping & Leadership Retreat (Student Life) and the Spoken Word Comes Alive with Andrea Gibson (Freedom Alliance) were also recognized.

Description
An account of the resource
The Robert and Jane Meyerhoff Chemistry Building and and the Janet and Walter Sondheim Hall were both dedicated in 2005 to honor two families that have served as long-time supporters and benefactors for UMBC. Academic IV - one of the least popular names for a building in UMBC’s history - was finally renamed the George and Betsy Sherman Hall in 2013. Other named spaces on campus include the Martin Schwartz Hall in the Biological Sciences building, the Albin O. Kuhn Library & Gallery, the Richard Roberts Seminar Room in the Library, and the Earl and Darielle Linehan Concert Hall in the Performing Arts and Humanities building.
Erickson Hall, a dormitory that opened in 1998, was named by the Erickson Foundation; due to a unique ownership agreement with the State of Maryland, the Erickson Foundation funded the construction of the building and manages the building. UMBC leases the land to Erickson, and at the end of the 40 year lease the building will be donated to the University of Maryland Foundation.

An account of the resource
From the first issue published on the first day of classes at UMBC, then under the title UMBC News, the student newspaper at UMBC has served to report, review, and document student and community life at UMBC. Known at various times as The Retriever, The UMBC Retriever, and since 2002 as The Retriever Weekly, the newspaper is staffed entirely by students. Reflecting trends in the newspaper industry nationally, the newspaper has moved online (currently at retrieverweekly.umbc.edu) and has reduced the number of print issues distributed for free on campus.

Description
An account of the resource
UMBC’s campus leaders have continually looked to the future of what UMBC may someday become, as demonstrated by Albin O. Kuhn’s yellow notes pads, Calvin Lee’s Project 2000, and even Michael Hooker’s ill-fated suggestion at a new name for the university. These formal and informal predictions continue today, but campus administrators and working groups also put substantial time and consideration into the work of the Strategic Planning process. Strategic plans identify the trajectory of the university - what strengths (and weaknesses) of the current system can be addressed in order to guide our path towards greater cooperation, scholarship, and community. This dynamic vision for the campus looks to the future of UMBC and guides the present day decisionmaking.

Description
An account of the resource
When UMBC opened, just a handful of buildings on an old farm, 30 miles from College Park and 8 miles from the downtown professional schools, the new faculty and first classes of students reported a sense of excitement at the possibility of the new school. Many in the community were not so sure, and as the direction of the university has evolved this support has evolved, too. In the past decade there has been a new sense of excitement not just on campus but nationwide, spurred on by higher honors in university rankings, national news profiles, and a growing network of accomplished alumni touting the success of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. This example, a front page story in the Baltimore Sun, trumpets UMBC’s profile and future.

Description
An account of the resource
The groundbreaking for the Performing Arts and Humanities Building (“the PAHB”) in 2010 represented on-going work to increase the support, advocacy, and exposure of the arts and humanities scholarship at UMBC. As the reputation of the school increasingly focused on the science and technology fields, there was a push to ensure that the administration was not neglecting the arts and humanities. Out of these discussions came the promise of a new building to replace the aging Fine Arts and Theatre facilities, two of the oldest on campus. After several delays in state funding, the groundbreaking was finally held on September 17, 2010, and attendees could collect small packets of dirt from the site as a souvenir. Phase I of the building opened in 2012, and Phase II opened in 2014.
The PAHB now houses a theatre, concert hall, Dance Cube, and black box theatre; classroom and department offices for the departments of Ancient Studies, Dance, English, Music, Philosophy, and Theatre; and offices and support space for the several academic programs and centers including the Linehan Artist Scholars and the Humanities Scholars, the Center for Innovation, Research and Creativity in the Arts (CIRCA), and the James T. and Virginia M. Dresher Center for the Humanities. In addition to being awarded Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold status, the building was honored by both the American Institute of Architects Baltimore Chapter and the Urban Land Institute in 2014.
