A Spring 2021 Welcome from your President

The Spring 2021 Welcome Letter from your President

Transcript below:

February 4, 2021

Dear SHPE UMD Familia:

Welcome to the Spring 2021 semester at the University of Maryland! I hope the winter break allowed you time to rest, relax, and spend time with your friends and families during the holidays. While we are still in a pandemic, I share hope with you all that with adherence to COVID-19 prevention guidelines, we will approach a “new normal” and host in-person events soon.

This semester provides us a more unique opportunity to host a number of social, networking, and volunteer events after the conclusion of the Fall hiring season. While we will still host corporate events, we want to focus on spending more time with our fellow Latinx STEM peers outside of class, especially for our seniors who will be graduating this year. We want to continually recognize those who are graduating virtually, be it last year or this year, as they resiliently stayed and completed their studies in this tumultuous time.

For those who transferred into the University of Maryland or into the Clark School of Engineering, we welcome you to our community of Latinx STEM students and their allies. For everyone else returning this year, we are glad you can join SHPE UMD for another semester!

Our first GBM will be this Tuesday, February 9, 2021, from 6-7 PM. We will welcome our community back to school by presenting our organization once again, as well as some updates from the past Fall semester. We will also play some games and get to know more about the Latinx community at the University of Maryland. Please feel free to share this event with your friends, as everyone is invited. The link is https://umd.zoom.us/j/5257262509.

Finally, I wish you all a most successful and empowering Spring semester. SHPE UMD, with its numerous academic, corporate networking, and social resources, is your place to feel at home within Maryland. Feel free to email me at president.shpe.umd@gmail.com anytime.

Sincerely,
John Dutan
2020-2021 SHPE UMD President

Spring GBM #2

 

If you weren’t able to pull through to our last GBM, you missed a professional yet hilarious session. We went over classic tips on how to be successful for career fair season, but we also figured “why not play charades and have pizza?”

Giving Back in DC! :)

   

Today the SHPE familia gave back to the ones in need! All the trails mix packaged by the familia will be donated to Martha’s table, a non-profit that’s devoted to leveraging the access of healthy foods for children and their families!

SHPE National Conference 2019!

UMD’s SHPE chapter had a PHENOMENAL time in Phoenix, Arizona! Among the 9500 SHPE members that attended this year, this chapter had the chance to interact and network with Latinx professionals and as well as listen to talks within the tech and engineering industries 🙂

This year’s national convention was the largest it’s ever been in the past 8 years, and this familia couldn’t be more grateful to be apart of it. #SHPE2019 #SHPEFamilia #Region4
