Meet the Staff

Alice Bishop, Program Management Specialist (ambishop@umd.edu)
As the Program Management Specialist, Alice Bishop provides executive administrative support for the Diversity office.  In her position, she has the lead responsibility for coordinating the annual Celebrating Excellence program. She also produces the weekly Career Services eNewsletter for undergraduate students, serves as the primary liaison for MentorNet and provides administrative support for various search committees. In her free time, Alice serves as a community advocate to develop partnerships with neighborhood schools, churches and businesses to improve the quality of life for all individuals.  Her advice to students is “Don’t Give Up and Each One, Help One”.  This belief is a result of her being reared at an early age by an entire “community” and learning the importance of education and giving back. Prior to joining the College of Computer, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Alice worked in the university’s Philip Merrill College of Journalism where she coordinated the efforts of journalists to provide quality stories of children and families.
