UMB Champions of Excellence
Division of Student Affairs
From the outside, the SMC Campus Center at the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) appears quiet and empty. When the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded in March, UMB leadership closed the center to the public in an effort to keep students, faculty, and staff safe and physically distanced.
The center was closed for five months, but UMB’s Division of Student Affairs team was hard at work supporting the University community by providing resources and communications assistance to the Office of Emergency Management while moving programs online involving fitness, wellness, diversity, co-curricular education, student leadership, and more.
