Description
An account of the resource
The first issue of the student newspaper in 1966 reported that the university would install a Student Government Association that would provide for self-government under the jurisdiction of the university's administrative and faculty personnel." The article set forth that the SGA would create the policies that governed the activities and welfare of students and advise the administration of the student viewpoint on matters affecting student life. The first step in creating the SGA was the formation of a Student Elections Board Committee, selected by the Student Life Office. Doug Gordon was elected by the student body as SGA president, in addition to Ken Walters, vice president; Barry Sugar, treasurer; and Margaret Masse, secretary.
In the April 1987 SGA election, Will Backstrom and Jerry Sadler won with 309 votes, a fifty-three vote margin over the closest runner-up. The Backstrom/Sadler campaign didn't make any promises to students, which was a move that The Retriever Weekly reported was intentional as Sadler believed previous SGA winners often made promises they didn't have the power to keep."

Description
An account of the resource
Quadmania in 1998 was almost Quad"-less. The festival was originally scheduled to be held in Parking Lot 16 due to construction in the area of the RAC and Commons; only a few weeks prior were the students informed that Quadmania would be held on the eponymous Quad. Quadmania did eventually leave the Quad for several years and was held instead at the parking lots at the top of the hill (near the police station) and at the bottom (in the Stadium Lot). The festival and music concerts returned to the Quad in 2011.

Description
An account of the resource
UMBC students John Ridgway and Denise K. Bennett were appointed to one-year terms on the Governor's Youth Advisory Council, a group established in 1972 by an executive order from Governor Marvin Mandel. The Council was intended to give young people a voice in state government at a time when their voices were heard by public officials mostly during demonstrations protesting against government actions. Among the issues considered by the Council in the 1970s were the problems of runaway youths and lowering of the age of majority from twenty-one to eighteen. Coordinated today by the Department of Employment and Social Services, the group holds at least four meetings per year and takes an interest in such topics such as state higher education tuition and health care for young people.
