To celebrate and promote the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s (UMB) core values, the University launched this year the Presidential Core Values Awards, designed to recognize students, faculty, and staff who embody the seven values at the heart of UMB’s mission: accountability, civility, collaboration, diversity, excellence, knowledge, and leadership.
“Despite the upheaval brought on by COVID-19, UMB’s core values are more important now than ever,” says UMB President Bruce E. Jarrell, MD, FACS. “Crises like this one test our ability to stay true to our values — and yet provide us with an opportunity to use those core values in our new path forward.”
