Community Relations

Chancellor Blumenthal addresses the audience at the Partners in Community event. The Partners in Community event is designed to provide members of UCSC's 14 Friends groups and other invited members of the Santa Cruz community with an opportunity to hear Chancellor Blumenthal review highlights from the prior year and preview the year ahead. Audience members also get a chance to ask questions of Blumenthal and other members of the campus's Leadership Team. Read more

Good Neighbor Guidelines (MS Word format) The Good Neighbor Initiative was started to foster good relations between UCSC and the City of Santa Cruz. Good Neighbor Interns worked diligently with the UCSC Government & Community Relations office to bridge the communication between neighbors, students, the city, and the university.
