  • Strategic Plan 2018-2021 1 Black Metropolis Research Consortium
    Strategic Plan 2018-2021 1 Black Metropolis Research Consortium Letter from the Board Chair and Executive Director On behalf of the Board of Trustees, Staff, and Members of the Black Metropolis Research Consortium (BMRC), we are pleased to present our 2018-2021 Strategic Plan! Sincere gratitude is extended to BMRC Board Members and Staff who worked diligently from 2017 to 2018 to ensure this Plan will aid us in charting our course. As a consortium created in 2006 with a dedication to the acquisition, preservation, discovery and use of archives and historical documents on the Black experience throughout metropolitan Chicago, we recognize the importance of “Sankofa” as a guiding principle for our collective work. Sankofa – a word from the Akan language of Ghana, Africa – translates in English to “go back and get it.” Like the Akan people, we move forward while remaining conscious of the past and the wisdom therein. We believe the past can and should serve as a guide for planning the future. BMRC stakeholders drew upon the organization’s past successes and challenges, as well as members’ prioritization of goals and an understanding of the future of cultural heritage professions to create a strategic framework for excellence. In our second decade, we are committed to implementing the Strategic Plan as a guide for continuing the work of BMRC, achieving our revised mission, and striving toward our vision. Core values have been included to keep our fundamental principles and beliefs centered in our work. Through consensus, we identified five priority areas to inform our strategic direction for growth and impact: education, collections, collection advisement, membership and sustainability.

Economics How many years of study had you completed 2 before going on exchange? STUDIES Studies/Semester description The text field will expand to allow you to write as The biggest difference between NUIG and Uppsala University was for much as you like me that at NUIG you take six courses simultaneously, while in Uppsala it's usually just one or two. That means you have to balance a lot of different subjects at the same time, and in my experience end up with more work during and at the end of the semester for exams and final essays. It can be a bit confusing sometimes, but once you get into it it's not a big problem. I experienced that I spent more time on my studies in Galway than in Uppsala, but the level of the studies was quite similar. Perhaps a bit higher at Uppsala. I studied courses mainly in Political Sciences, but also in Economics and Philosophy. I can highly recommend taking courses in political sciences, they keep very high quality and most of the teachers are very engaged and easy to listen to.
