INTRODUCTION<\/h2>\n

Student Initiated Recruitment and Retention Committee<\/a> members are\u00a0passionate about reaching out to high school and 1st year UCSB\u00a0students. SIRRC’s\u00a0outreach programs build a bridge from high school to the university and give new\u00a0students the support they need to take advantage of everything UCSB has to offer. This support includes hosting midterm and finals study jams to help\u00a0students\u00a0achieve academically. It also encourages new students\u00a0to participate in student organizations on campus that open the way to\u00a0student leadership opportunities. SIRRC’s\u00a0G.U.I.D.E.S. Mentorship Program develops\u00a0student leaders and encourages\u00a0academic success. SIRCC members strive to \u00a0help improve\u00a0the lives of under-represented, under-privileged, low-income students. Often they are the first in their families to go to college. As such, in a real sense they’re the promise of the future for both their families and their communities.<\/p>\n
