Thank You For Making TechFest a Great Success!

On Wednesday, March 9, from 11:30am - 1:30pm, DoIT’s Instructional Technology team sponsored Techfest in the University Center (rooms UC 310, UC 312, and the UC Lounge) to bring the campus community together and present ways that technology can both support and improve the efficiency of day-to-day activities.


Students, faculty, and staff were all welcome and encouraged to attend. The event was a huge success, and we'd like to thank everyone who participated. 


We'd especially like to thank all of the vendors who both donated raffle items and attended the event.  All raffle winners have been contacted; congratulations to those of you who won items ranging from $20 Starbucks gift cards to headphones and webcams.


We can't thank all of our workshop presenters enough; their willingness to share their knowledge with our community is greatly appreciated. Our workshop presenters were as follows:


Caroline Bodnar, Career Center

Brad Boyle, DoIT

Lin DasSarma, DoIT Student Worker

Emily Duan, DoIT Student Worker

Mariann Hawken, DoIT

Kate Phelps, Career Center

Ken Schreihofer, Student Affairs

Jack Suess, UMBC CIO

Collin Sullivan, DoIT Student Worker



Finally, we want to thank the student worker on our Instructional Technology team, Collin Sullivan, for spearheading the planning and implementation of TechFest, and we look forward to bringing you another TechFest event in the future!
