Creating Community

This presentation highlights key student concerns related to financial aid, ownership, and character within the UCSC community. With 50% of undergraduates receiving financial aid and graduates facing an average debt of $18,000, we identify challenges and solutions. Ownership fosters pride and engagement, ultimately aiding retention. Strategies include creating student-led committees, incorporating lounge and study spaces, and promoting environmentally friendly transit options. We aim to empower students, ensuring their voices shape the campus environment for a thriving academic community.
