USMSC Meeting at Bowie State University - December 2024

USMSC Launch!

USMSC Launch is our inaugural (but annual from now on!) system-wide student leadership meeting designed to provide institutional undergraduate and graduate student council leaders with a comprehensive orientation to the University System of Maryland Student Council, University System of Maryland (USM), Board of Regents (BOR), and leadership within our higher education system. This meeting will foster understanding of those entities’ structure, purpose, and impact, while building connections among student leaders across institutions to support effective collaboration and advocacy throughout the academic year.

Tentatively, the program will feature:

• Greetings from Chair Linda Gooden and Chancellor Jay Perman
• Opening keynote from Dr. Renique Kersh, Vice President for Student Affairs, University of Maryland, Baltimore County
• Introduction to departmental functions and leaders within the USM
• Abbreviated USMSC business meeting
• Opportunities for inter-institutional student connections
• Panel of former USMSC/BOR student leaders

Date: Sunday, September 7, 2025 at 9:30 AM - 4:00 PM
