Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant
BeSeTo in Catonsville. "Be" as in "Beijing", "Se" as in "Seoul", and "To" as in "Tokyo", it's a really great East-Asian food court nearby that you can even get to by taking UMBC Transit!
My advice to prospective students...
Use the resources that the campus has to offer. Whether it be the Writing Center for your paper, the Career Center to plan out your future, the Women's Center, and the Center For Well Being.
Fun Fact
Did you know you can get lots of cool stuff from events that the Student Events Board (SEB) holds? They hold paint nights where you can pain on canvases or blank tote bags, study nights with tea and hot cocoa, and some events even give t-shirts!
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
...that many student organizations and clubs do not require a formal sign up. If you hear about an event, just show up and you'll be able to make friends easily!
