If nothing changes, the cost of college and the amount of student debt will continue to skyrocket. Academia has already been undermined by the decline in tenure, the plight of adjunct faculty, and the cuts in funding for public institutions.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Please join us Oct. 31 for a panel discussion on the Future of Higher Education, 1:30 pm-3:30 pm, at the Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus, 2nd floor Atrium of the Student Services Building.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;We&#39;ll talk about these scary issues and possible solutions with our panelists:&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;- Will Smith, Maryland State Senator, D-District 20, on tuition-free college proposals&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;- Maria Maisto, President and Executive Director of New Faculty Majority, on the state of higher education, and&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;- Anne McLeer, Director of Higher Education and Research for SEIU Local 500, on the unionization of adjunct faculty and future trends&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;This will be a fascinating educational panel with time allotted for questions and answers.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;This event is co-sponsored by the Montgomery College Part-Time Faculty Union (SEIU Local 500), AFSCME Local 2380, the Montgomery College Student Council, and the TPSS Campus Student Senate.</story_body><attached_files><attachmentcount>2</attachmentcount><attached_file><file><rawname>OCT. 31 EVENT FLYER NEW.pdf</rawname><href>attach/19724e98-fce7-aed4-5d89-70ce3b1492bc/OCT. 31 EVENT FLYER NEW.pdf</href></file></attached_file><attached_file><file><rawname>halloweenacademicpanel.png</rawname><href>attach/19724e98-fce7-aed4-5d89-70ce3b1492bc/halloweenacademicpanel.png</href></file><thumbnail><rawname>tn_0.png</rawname><href>attach/19724e98-fce7-aed4-5d89-70ce3b1492bc/tn_0.png</href></thumbnail></attached_file></attached_files><display_image><rawname>halloweenacademicpanel.png</rawname><href>attach/19724e98-fce7-aed4-5d89-70ce3b1492bc/halloweenacademicpanel.png</href></display_image><category_name>Other (Do Not Use)</category_name><submitter_email>vsano@aol.com</submitter_email><submitter_phone>240-389-8432</submitter_phone><story_summary/>

Together, the spaces were thoughtfully planned, designed, and implemented to support the unique needs of parenting students and their families. The creation of these spaces allow parenting students to remain connected to campus while providing their children with access to child-friendly activities and learning materials. Each location includes family-centered features such as children&#39;s books, activity stations, colorful furnishings, interactive technology, and comfortable study areas that foster both academic success and a strong sense of belonging.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Room locations for each campus will be added once confirmed, including the designated space within the Germantown Library, so students can easily identify where the spaces are located and how to access them.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;The creation of these spaces reflects an ongoing commitment to removing barriers, supporting student success, and recognizing the full lives and responsibilities of students. For parenting students, access to family-friendly study spaces can make a meaningful difference as they continue pursuing their educational goals while caring for their families.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Family-Friendly Study Spaces now available at all four locations:&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Rockville: CB 215&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Takoma Park/Silver Spring: RC 243&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Germantown: HS Library&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;East County Education Center: Library Hallway&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;For more information, please contact:&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#60;b&#62;Janee &#60;/b&#62;&#60;strong&#62;McFadden, &#60;/strong&#62;Associate Senior Vice President for Student Success and Strategic Initiatives&#60;/p&#62;</story_body><attached_files><attachmentcount>3</attachmentcount><attached_file><file><rawname>1000029545.jpg</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/1000029545.jpg</href></file><thumbnail><rawname>tn_0.jpg</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/tn_0.jpg</href></thumbnail></attached_file><attached_file><file><rawname>IMG_1039.JPG</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/IMG_1039.JPG</href></file><thumbnail><rawname>tn_1.jpg</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/tn_1.jpg</href></thumbnail></attached_file><attached_file><file><rawname>IMG_1030.JPG</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/IMG_1030.JPG</href></file><thumbnail><rawname>tn_2.jpg</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/tn_2.jpg</href></thumbnail></attached_file></attached_files><display_image><rawname>di_0.jpg</rawname><href>attach/0bf34981-489e-7304-e1a3-912937135328/di_0.jpg</href></display_image><category_name>College News</category_name><featured_story>0</featured_story><show_display_picture>1</show_display_picture><display_order_in_category>40</display_order_in_category><story_summary/>

During his sophomore season, Montgomery College advanced to the NJCAA National Championship, where the Raptors defeated the nation&#39;s No. 1-ranked team. The team finished the season, ranked among the top 10 in the country.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Finding Opportunity &#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;At Montgomery College, Nico found more than a soccer team. He found a community.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;Montgomery College has such an incredible environment,&#34; he said. &#34;You walk around campus and you see people from everywhere in the world.&#34;&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;His advice? Your GPA matters just as much as your game.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;If you have a good year with a good GPA, you&#39;re going to have the opportunity to go somewhere big.&#34;&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#60;strong&#62;Want the Full Story? &#60;/strong&#62;&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Nico is featured in &#60;a href=&#34;https://www.montgomerycollege.edu/offices/advancement-and-community-engagement/mctv/podcasts/beyond-the-classroom/index.html&#34; target=&#34;_self&#34; title=&#34;Episode 3&#34;&#62;Episode 3&#60;/a&#62; of Beyond the Classroom, Montgomery College&#39;s podcast about real student journeys.

Mine was rainforests and plants. I have no clue how that happened. I had never seen a rainforest, but that is what I was interested in,&#34; Dickens said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;She credits her parents for exposing her to different activities that sparked her interest. She visited a lot of museums. Dickens also went on trips to the zoo, where she could see people feed and handle animals. Her parents also would take her to science festivals.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;I was more interested in events where I could move around, see a lot of different things, do hands on demonstrations, and listen to people speak about their fields,&#34; Dickens explained.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;The Prince George&#39;s County native attended Howard University as an undergraduate. She majored in physics. She later obtained her PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Dickens joined the College in 2023. She teaches Principles of Biology on the Rockville campus. It is a blended course, taught part remote and part in person.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;My goal is to make virtual interactions for my course as dynamic as the in-person interactions,&#34; she said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Dickens became interested in teaching through some of her volunteer work at science expos and festivals. People attending those events would often ask her about demonstrations that were set up.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;I realized I enjoyed explaining the demonstrations just as much as I enjoyed creating them. This is what first got me thinking about teaching,&#34; Dickens said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;She has enjoyed her time at the College and interacting with the students. Some of her best experiences have come when students feel confident and comfortable enough to ask questions in class and challenge assumptions.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;My favorite moments are all focused around engagement, both academic and non-academic. I like when students walk in the classroom excited to share updates on that job they applied for, or that video game level they were trying so hard to beat, or the adorable thing their child said to them that morning,&#34; Dickens explained.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;She hopes students will walk away from her class confident enough to ask questions and challenge assumptions. She also wants her students to be confident about collecting data, analyzing it, and drawing their own conclusions from it.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Dickens said she has evolved as a teacher. She said she has had many mentors over the years.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;I took the methods I most admired from each of them and repackaged it into the teaching style I use today,&#34; Dickens said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;She knows working as a part-time faculty member can be challenging, and she has adopted a teaching philosophy that she believes pays off in the classroom.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;Even though your time is limited, use it to be engaged. Make time to meet with students and find out what their interests are, and try to incorporate those interests into the class,&#34; Dickens explained.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;When Dickens is not teaching, she works full time in the biotechnology field.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;Biotechnology is an interdisciplinary field that combines technology and biology to create and modify products. Advances in medicine, agriculture, scientific instrumentation can all be traced back to biotechnological innovation,&#34; Dickens said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Her specialty is molecular biology. Dickens work focuses on nucleic acid detection and quantitation which means detecting the precise measurement or estimate of the quantity, amount, or concentration of a particular substance.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;&#34;My work detects specific sequences of DNA or RNA and I try to determine how much of it is in a sample of interest,&#34; Dickens said.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;While her interest in biology began decades ago, she is now working in a career she loves, and the icing on the cake is she also is able to share her vast knowledge with her students.&#60;/p&#62;&#13;&#10;&#60;p&#62;Dickens does have some interests outside of her chosen field. She loves to garden, listen to music, read, fish, and go on bike rides.&#60;/p&#62;</story_body><attached_files><attachmentcount>1</attachmentcount><attached_file><file><rawname>OliviaDickens.png</rawname><href>attach/e4dcae9f-74bd-2154-0179-e177dc6da741/OliviaDickens.png</href></file><thumbnail><rawname>tn_0.png</rawname><href>attach/e4dcae9f-74bd-2154-0179-e177dc6da741/tn_0.png</href></thumbnail></attached_file></attached_files><display_image><rawname>di_0.png</rawname><href>attach/e4dcae9f-74bd-2154-0179-e177dc6da741/di_0.png</href></display_image><category_name>Employee News</category_name><featured_story>0</featured_story><show_display_picture>1</show_display_picture><display_order_in_category>10</display_order_in_category><story_summary/>
