This week is our first ever Yale-Harvard Week! Please join us in dressing up for the following theme days:
* Monday: Old Yale — Throwback to the good ole days - bust out your letterman sweaters, preppy shirts and blazers
* Tuesday: Residential College Spirit — Deck yourself out in your college's garb
* Wednesday: Anti-Harvard Shirts — We know Harvard sucks, so let's show it on our t-shirts
* Thursday: Navy and White — Wear Yale's colors so we have a sea of Eli pride at the Pep Rally
Over the past week we held our Job Shadowing and "Are You Smarter Than A Yale Professor" events. Both of these had a strong showing, and we look forward to putting on many more events throughout the next few weeks of the semester.
Today we premiered the YCC’s Bike Share program at the FCC’s Freshman Olympics! There will be a YCC representative stationed in Bass Library Café from 7-9PM every day this week, so please check with this person to make a bike reservation. We will announce soon how reservations will be made in the following weeks.
Bike Share will finally premere this Sunday at the FCC's Freshman BBQ (this event was delayed a week due to rain)! Look for these bikes in the near future!
We have a major secret announcement that will be sent out student-wide near the middle of this week (probably Tuesday night), so stay tuned for this!
Iron Chef applications will be due on Thursday of this week. All interested applicants should drop their forms and 40 signatures off in the marked box we have in the Berkeley Master's Office. No late applications will be accepted.
We have all of our minutes now posted online; you can view these under the "About Your YCC" tab or by clicking here.
Dates have also been updated recently; please continue to check the "Calendar" tab to see when the YCC is planning on holding events.
Profiles for our YCC Associates will be posted after they have been voted in.
We sent out a campus-wide email today for our Spring Fling and Athletic Rewards Committees. These are a superb way to get involved in major campus-wide activities, so we encourage you to seriously consider these positions.
Rules/Layout
There will be 2 rounds in the competition. The first round will be choreographed (weeks) beforehand by each group, the second round will be a free-style, improvisational dance.
The Spring Fling Committee application will be going out later today. This is a chance for you to get involved in this exciting process and work with top notch music talent. Please realize that this will be a major time commitment.
Our issues team has been meeting and is continuing to meet with professors to advocate for academic minors
