For a dozen College Park Scholars in the Media, Self and Society program, a
three-day trip this fall will give them not only a chance to immerse
themselves in the world of famed abolitionist Harriet Tubman, but also help
bring that story to a wider audience. This trip project was one of 27 funded
by the Do Good Campus Fund in its inaugural year—an example of the ways that
UMD faculty, staff and students work to serve humanity and reimagine
learning.

BAD BOSSES, BIG DREAMS AND BROKEN PHILANTHROPY
For some young people working in nonprofits, their organizations and leaders
seem out of touch. Top officials, they believe, are too consumed by their
legacy and the hunt for grants. They feel radical change is needed now — in
how philanthropy dispenses money, how organizations fight crises, and how
staff is managed — but they don’t yet have the power or resources to make it
happen. They have big ideas, but they’re still being treated like kids.Life
Sciences alum Anthony Sartoni details his work in the mental health space and
the partnership between nonprofits and philanthropy in this roundtable
discussion.
