How to Become Affiliated
To affiliate with the RRC, you must complete an affiliate application typically distributed towards the end of the academic school year and attend one info session. If accepted, your organization's affiliation will commence in the following academic year, with participation requiring reapplication annually.
Additionally, one executive board member must complete a Google form on our website during the summer, agreeing to uphold and embody the values, mission, and vision of Centro, particularly where they intersect with your organization's values.
Furthermore, if accepted, the organization must ensure that 25% of their active membership volunteers 25 hours collectively per quarter at specified events (UC Insight, Drag Lotería, Queerquinceañera, Xi/Lat Graduation, RRC Research Symposium, Posada), and hold quarterly or monthly meetings with the RRC Student Life Operations Specialist or Student Org Liaison.
