I juse came back from having a few drinks after work, so it took a couple minutes to realize what the Maryland email was saying. I'm so happy!!! I cant describe it. I know my interview was earlier, but technically I'm out of state, although I graduated from UMD-College Park. If anyone is out there who knows they're going to B-more and is in the area and wants to meet up, send me a message.... I'm very down to meet my future colleagues.
