- You can personally support the BSC's Alumni engagement & fundraising efforts! The BSC's Central Office is urgently hiring three paid Development and Alumni Relations positions!
- You can get your Community Improvement hours requirement met by helping reach out to donors to renew their giving! Remember, one of the main reasons our alumni give back is to support YOU and they are always thrilled to hear from you. Elissa and Portia can support you with this in December after the November holidays.
- As you know, this year is the 90th Anniversary of the BSC! There are still ample opportunities to celebrate! You're now part of this legacy so we hope you'll also participate so we can strengthen alumni relationships for the long term. Fill out this Google form to let us know how you want to be involved in our fundraising & alumni Engagement Efforts!. Every house has $200 per semester for alumni events.

One of our alumni helped found the Berkeley Rep! This offer does not include opening nights and is limited to 1 discounted ticket per person.
