Grit, Greatness... and Beyond!
UMBC's 50th Anniversary was a smash hit, bringing Retrievers together for a spirited year-long celebration of UMBC’s past and present. Next week, we will come together again to launch an effort to ensure that our next 50 years are just as successful.
Please join the campus community on October 11 for a Campus Campaign Kick-Off celebrating the launch of Grit & Greatness: The Campaign for UMBC. Throughout the morning, enjoy a doughnut at one of our welcome tables around campus, and later join together at our Campus Campaign Kick-Off during free hour.
Wednesday, October 11
Noon - 1:30 p.m.
In the big tent by the library
Together, we will have conversations with friends about the ways UMBC transforms lives, makes big breakthroughs, and forges partnerships. Share your stories to get a free long-sleeved t-shirt celebrating our UMBC values, and enjoy a grab-and-go lunch. Don’t forget to wear your black and gold!
If you have questions about the Campus Campaign Kick-Off, please get in touch with Sandra Dzija at dzija@umbc.edu.
And, we hope you won’t miss UMBC's Homecoming 2017 for a line-up that includes the Alumni Awards, Poetry Slam, Bonfire and Block Show, athletic alumni games, men's and women's athletic games, a men's basketball tip-off event and scrimmage, carnival, GRIT-X talks, comedy show featuring Trevor Noah, and more. For more information on these and other events, October 5-14, and to register, visit our Homecoming website.
