Congratulations to FCC graphic design student Ian Superier, who received a ‘Recognition of Excellence’ award for his submission in The Real Show 2026 student design competition organized by George Mason University. His work stemmed from a course project that had him creating branding for the Hypergoat coffee roasters company.

"I initially had planned for a more complex design for both the logo and labels," shared Ian. "With help from my professor and my peers, I ended up opting for a more minimal and geometric look. I felt that using sharper lines and brighter colors would evoke a more powerful and energetic feel to the overall brand."

Congratulations, Ian!

We are celebrating a major step forward for student parents across Maryland.

Governor Wes Moore recently signed SB 420/HB 006 into law, helping ensure student parents are better seen, counted, and supported within Maryland’s higher education system through improved data collection. We are proud to recognize the leadership and dedication of FCC English professor Dr. Anne Hofmann, whose scholarly research, organizing, and advocacy was foundational to this effort. She has been working with other Maryland and national policy experts for four years to ensure student parents are counted and supported in public higher education systems in our state.

The achievement reflects the power of collaboration, persistence, and community support. Thank you to everyone who contributed testimony, shared their experiences, and helped move this work forward.

This is the beginning of the important work ahead: ensuring this law leads to meaningful support and opportunity for student parents across Maryland.

"This law is for every parenting student who struggles to juggle the everyday needs of caregiving, financial realities, and academic deadlines," said Dr. Hofmann. "It's for all of us who wondered if the degree is worth it, and if anyone sees how hard it is to do it all in a system built for students without children. We see you, and now—because of this law—so does the State of Maryland!"
