I love IHU classes, they are so helpful and a good way to unwind and still retain information about the campus. My IHU class actually went on a scavenger hunt which is how I found some of my favorite hangout places on campus and student resources that I would've been too scared to look for myself.
When it is raining, be sure to use the academic buildings and the connected bridge ways to avoid getting wet, if you use them right you will only really be outside for 10-20 seconds at a time.

UMBC is such a tight knit community. A home is a place where you can feel comfortable and safe. For me, a home is just an environment where you can be free and can be yourself. This how I feel when I'm in UMBC, I feel comfortable enough to be my complete unadulterated self and everyone around me is the same.
