AIRC Year End Celebration (YEC)

Congratulations, Class of 2026!
The American Indian Resource Center’s Year End Celebration, affectionately referred to as YEC, is an intimate celebration of all graduating Native students and past interns of the American Indian Resource Center and People of Color Sustainability Collective. We will be honoring a few of our graduates with gifts and a stole. We allow each graduate to do a short speech about their time at UCSC and share what they are doing next. We invite Native staff, faculty, family members, and friends of each graduate. Providing a space to celebrate the graduating students’ accomplishments here at UC Santa Cruz! This event is planned to be held at the Cowell Ranch Hay Barn on June 11th from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m.
