Annual Gala
Our spring gala is both a fundraiser and an opportunity to celebrate the enormous personal, academic, and professional efforts and accomplishment of scholars, parents, and the CSS community. At the gala we recognize Black and Latino males in the external community who have an exemplary history of distinction through service in their professional fields.
Game Nights
Game nights provide the opportunity for scholar brothers to unwind from their rigorous studies and celebrate birthdays with food, cake, video games, and board games.
Parents Meeting
At our monthly meetings, parents can learn about the progress of the CSS community, hear what and how their children are doing, and recognize specific achievements of scholars. Meetings also include a potluck meal to which parents are invited to contribute.
ERC Days
Scholars bond while working out at the Epply Recreation Center where they may teach each other different workout methods, play basketball together, or play other sports and games as available.
Jam Sessions
Scholars get together to create and listen to music.
Registration Resource Referral
Scholars provide feedback about professors and courses to give fellow scholars insights into teaching styles and course offerings at the University of Maryland. Advisors are available to review scholar schedules and provide guidance on creating a healthy and manageable workload.
Review Sessions
Scholars or team leaders who excelled in an academic course volunteer their services to facilitate review sessions in courses that other scholars are experiencing academic challenges and where there is a high demand for tutoring. The review sessions provide an overview of course material, exams, quizzes, and homework.
Resident Assistant Workshops
Current scholars who serve as residential assistants at the University Of Maryland offer insider tips for fellow scholars who are applying for the position with two workshops for each step of the application process.
Intramural Teams
Scholars participate on campus teams in sports such as soccer, tennis, and flag football.
I Can Do That Project
Scholars serve as mentors, tutors, and instructors for participants in the I Can Do That Project – a community-based college preparatory program that provides low-income, male students from diverse backgrounds at Northwestern High School with the academic, leadership, and personal skills needed to graduate from high school and prepare for higher education.
Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Educations Tours
Scholars help lead tours, host tour participants, and serve on panels to provide information about the Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Education for students K-12 who visit the University of Maryland.
