SUMMARY:Servingness en Acción: Nurturing Student Leadership Rooted in Cariño\, Cultura\, y Comunidad
DESCRIPTION:Presented by El Centro Lead Student Coordinators\, Joselyn Salgado Lomeli and Giovanna Fernandez \nThis is the 1st session of a 2-part Student-led HSI Equity Talks Series titled “From Voice to Power: Students as Leaders\, Knowledge Holders\, and Change Agents.” \nEl Centro interns are student leaders who draw upon their cultural strengths and lived experiences to organize impactful programs that foster belonging\, support retention\, and enhance campus climate at UC Santa Cruz. The internship cultivates community\, identity affirmation\, and authentic\, culturally grounded leadership. For 30 years\, interns have advanced the university’s servingness mission while gaining professional skills\, confidence\, and clarity in their goals. \nMost importantly\, the program centers culturally sustaining practices that connect identity to leadership and develop justice-oriented leaders committed to uplifting their communities. This student-led presentation highlights how the internship supports leadership development\, holistic success\, and post-graduation outcomes through frameworks such as Razalogía\, Community Cultural Wealth\, and Authentic Cariño\, positioning interns as co-creators and knowledge holders in advancing servingness. \nPlease register to receive a calendar invitation and Zoom details. \n  \nYou Belong Here: The programs and services described here are open to all\, consistent with state and federal law\, as well as the University of California’s nondiscrimination policies. Every initiative—whether a student service\, faculty program\, or community event—is designed to be accessible\, inclusive\, and respectful of all identities. \nTo learn more\, please visit UC Nondiscrimination Statement or Nondiscrimination Policy for UC Publications.

SUMMARY:Inspirando the Colega Mindset: Co-creating Change through Equitable Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:This is the 2nd session of a 2-part Student-led Equity Talks Series titled “From Voice to Power: Students as Leaders\, Knowledge Holders\, and Change Agents.” \nStudent Advisory Equipo\, launched in 2025 through the HSI Title V CULTURA grant\, is made up of six undergraduate student advocates. Grounded by their lived experience and experiential knowledge\, they serve as collaborators who play a critical role in shaping culturally affirming programs\, policies\, and decisions that impact student life. UCSC’s Equipo draws inspiration from the student-led transformation work at Pasadena City College (PCC) and Dr. Desiree Zuniga\, whose testimonios\, insights\, and guidance shaped the foundation of UCSC’s own initiative. UCSC’s Equipo is part of a growing movimiento committed to empowering student leaders as partners and collaborators in advancing servingness and institutional transformation. \nIn its first year\, Equipo members have engaged across multiple campus initiatives\, including Pan Dulce Fridays and the HSI Survey Coding Project. This presentation will invite participants to move beyond siloed efforts toward a more integrated\, collaborative campus community that empowers students as essential partners in shaping more equitable institutional practices. \nPlease register to receive a calendar invitation and Zoom details. \n  \nYou Belong Here: The programs and services described here are open to all\, consistent with state and federal law\, as well as the University of California’s nondiscrimination policies. Every initiative—whether a student service\, faculty program\, or community event—is designed to be accessible\, inclusive\, and respectful of all identities. \nTo learn more\, please visit UC Nondiscrimination Statement or Nondiscrimination Policy for UC Publications.

SUMMARY:It Takes an Ecosystem: Staff and Faculty Perspectives on Collaboration at UC Santa Cruz
DESCRIPTION:Funded through a Department of Education Title V grant\, a team at UC Santa Cruz launched CULTURA (Centering Undergraduate Latine Thriving with University Racial-Equity Action) in 2024 as a bold\, campus-wide effort to reimagine how we can collectively advance student success and equity. At its core\, CULTURA asks: What becomes possible when we intentionally invest in and connect the people\, relationships\, and infrastructures already engaged in transformative work? \nDifferent from past Title V HSI grants\, which have rigorously tested and sustained single interventions\, CULTURA embraces an ecosystem approach. This approach recognizes that meaningful\, sustained change depends on the investment in and coordination of those leading equity work every day: campus staff and faculty. The HSI Equity Talk centers their voices. \nIn June 2025\, we launched the HSI CULTURA Staff and Faculty Survey\, a collaborative effort* designed to surface insights from staff and faculty respondents. The survey explored key dimensions of the ecosystem: coordination among campus units\, support (or lack thereof) available to equity-focused leaders\, and collective and institutional capacity to collaborate\, adapt\, and transform campus culture. \nIn this interactive session\, facilitators will share key survey findings as an invitation to collective sense-making. Together\, we will discuss: What resonates? What is missing? How do these findings reflect or challenge your own experiences? How can we mobilize this collective knowledge to strengthen and coordinate our shared efforts toward student success and equity\, especially amid severe financial constraints? Join us as we aim to deepen our coordination\, elevate the voices of those leading change\, and build a more connected ecosystem for student success and equity. \nPlease register to receive a calendar invitation and Zoom details. \n  \nYou Belong Here: The programs and services described here are open to all\, consistent with state and federal law\, as well as the University of California’s nondiscrimination policies. Every initiative—whether a student service\, faculty program\, or community event—is designed to be accessible\, inclusive\, and respectful of all identities. \nTo learn more\, please visit UC Nondiscrimination Statement or Nondiscrimination Policy for UC Publications.
