A network of UC Santa Cruz alumni chapters and regional groups exists across the country to serve as extensions of the University. The purpose of the Los Angeles Chapter is to serve UC Santa Cruz and its alumni in the Southern California area, to promote networking, and to bring a bit of the UCSC campus to alumni who live far from its doors.
 
The UCSC Alumni Association can help you locate long-lost friends from your college days, and give you access to the UC System libraries, recreational facilities, group tours for international travel, special events, newsletters, and many other benefits.  Membership is inexpensive, and there are several ways to join.  Contact: UCSC Alumni Office, Carriage House, Santa Cruz, CA  95065, or call 800-933-SLUG.  We're on the Web at:  http://alumni.ucsc.edu/
