Our Crowdfunding Groups
Thanks to our generous donors, we're paving the way for another great year of RJ at UC Berkeley.
As 2015-16 comes to a close, we're so proud to congratulate TJ, Paula and Johanna who are moving on to greater things after graduating from Cal. TJ will be working with a Civil Rights Law firm in SF, Johanna will be working in the education field, and Paula will return to Ecuador.
Emely will be doing a year abroad in Brazil, and we'll be happy to welcome back RJ Student Leaders D'Mani, Rodrigo and Jessica, for another great year of making the UCB campus a kinder and more inclusive space for all students.

We've got some great news to report, including this wonderful report on the work of our students to train graduate students in diversity and inclusion, and using inclusive techniques in their discussion sections. Enjoy at this link.
