the Alumni Awards event which takes place during Homecoming. It's only open to students who have received certain scholarships or are involved with the Student Alumni Association (SAA). One of the recipients was the Surgeon General, Jerome Adams and after the ceremony I got to talk with him, meet his daughter, and take a selfie!
talk to people! The more connections you make the better your UMBC experience will be, from making new friends and memories to getting useful opportunities along your career path!
Dr. Freeland! He's my Individualized Studies (INDS) advisor and is someone who really understands where I want to go and pushes me to get there and beyond, but creatively and in my own way.
is to try new things!! You don't really know if you'll like something until you experience it. Plus it's better to take the risk and maybe find a new passion or meet new friends.
