Building Alumni Connections Can Support Current Members and Help Us Raise Money!

- Have you considered that each of you will be a BSC alum at some point? Our alumni love their time in the BSC and not only love to get together, they want to meet you. To support that, the BSC Alumni Association (BSCAA) wants to welcome you to join as soon as you graduate with free membership for your first year after graduation! With very affordable rates beyond that, the Association also has a policy that No One is Turned Away For Lack of Funds.
- Want to learn what the BSCAA is about? Come to the BSC Alumni Association Annual Member Meeting (RSVP for free) in Rochdale's ICE Room on Saturday December 9th at 10 am!
- Even as our 90th Anniversary year is coming to a close, your house can host alumni events any semester. Now that you're part of the BSC's legacy, we hope you'll participate in strengthening 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.
- The Berkeley Repertory Theatre has a new show out, so if you haven't yet gone, check out their latest show "The Cult of Love"! Current members can attend a Berkeley Repertory Theatre show at a half-price rate this season by using code BSC50 or by following this link!
- How is this possible?! 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.
- We're planning an Alumni event at Kingman Hall in January 2024 to celebrate the reopening of the house! We'll feature the creek restoration work, help restore some murals, and generally fill the house with warmth as residents return! Reach out to Portia if you want to help with any part of the event.
Two co-op alums, Portia Lewis & Elissa Roy, are helping with all these efforts. Reach out to them directly if you want any more info or just to talk! Portia Lewis events@bsc.coop; Elissa Roy development@bsc.coop
