My favorite class and professor would definitely be Professor Justice for MCS 222! He was very engaging and loved to chat with students after class, and he was always very understanding and accommodating to students who were struggling outside of class. He was very compassionate and undoubtedly felt a passion for educating us!
Put yourself out there! In my first semester, I kept to myself to the point where it was a little isolating. Do not be afraid to meet new people and get to know your professors!
The Taste Tea right across Oca Mocha! Such a great spot with loads of options. Highly recommend it!
How to get involved on campus! It was really scary for me to come to UMBC as most of my friends had gone to other institutions, so it was hard for me to meet new people. As I got more involved on campus, I met many people and made loads of new friends, and I gained all sorts of new experiences through my activities here!
