UCSB Participates in the Great American Smokeout

Did you know that all UC locations and properties became tobacco and smoke free on January 1, 2014? Housing, Dining & Auxiliary Enterprises (HDAE) played a big role in this year’s Great American Smoke Out (GASO) at UCSB on Thursday, November 17th. Our marketing and communications team designed and student-tested four engaging posters with messages relating to cigarette butt litter, second-hand smoke and asthma, money spent on tobacco, and its negative effects on endurance.

Emergency Preparedness & Community Resource Fair

Just a few days before the start of the Fall Quarter, Family Student Housing had its Welcome Event, the Emergency Preparedness and Community Resource Fair. This community-wide event is held each year at Storke Family Housing, and is open to residents from both of our family student complexes, Storke and West Campus.

Hello beautiful people,

When one begins incentivizing the knowledge that is all around, exponential growth is inevitable. I have never appreciated knowledge as much as I do now and it only grows stronger. UCSB has given me all-access to opportunities that have allowed me to be as progressive as I would like.
