+== What ==
+
+The "UMBC" Beamer theme I use in all of my presentations at UMBC.
+
+== How ==
+
+In the makefile of your project, you should list all of the pieces of
+the theme. For example,
+
+  UMBC  = beamercolorthemeUMBC.sty beamerfontthemeUMBC.sty
+  UMBC += beamerinnerthemeUMBC.sty beamerouterthemeUMBC.sty
+  UMBC += beamerthemeUMBC.sty images/umbc_logo.pdf
+
+The absolute paths to those libraries, on your system, can be found
+using "kpsewhich" from the kpathsea suite:
+
+  UMBCPATHS = $(shell kpsewhich $(UMBC))
+
+Now add those as dependencies of your document:
+
+  example.pdf: example.tex example.bbl ... $(UMBCPATHS)
+
+WARNING: This will only work as long as the path to beamer-umbc is in
+your $TEXINPUTS environment variable! I suggest setting it in
+~/.bashrc.
