The SLC wishes you a happy Pride Month!

Summer Sessions are right around the corner, and the SLC Academic Calendars are now live to support you!

Whether your course is 3 weeks or 12, planning ahead is essential to staying on track with the fast pace of summer courses.

This year, we’ve made it even easier to stay on track with a dedicated calendar for each session. That’s right, no matter which session you’re enrolled in, there’s a calendar made just for you.

We hope your summer is off to a great start, Golden Bears!

If you're taking classes this summer, we've got good news: the SLC will officially launch its summer services starting on June 23rd! 

Stay tuned here and at slc.berkeley.edu for updates in the coming weeks as we roll out support for your summer learning journey.

We can’t wait to see you then!

Greetings, future Golden Bears!

Cal Day is coming up, and we're so excited to introduce ourselves and share all the ways we’re here to support you at Cal! Whether you're part of the Class of 2027 or 2029, we know you’ve got big dreams, and we’ve got your back every step of the way!

Stop by tables 34 & 35 at Dwinelle Plaza tomorrow to get to know our team, share your aspirations & questions, and discover how the SLC can be your partner on your academic journey.

We know many of you will have in-depth and course-culminating projects you are working on over the next few weeks. As you look for ways to keep your writing momentum high, we are thrilled to announce the arrival of our Spring 2025 Research Writing Workshops!

This week is National Student Employee Appreciation Week, and we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible contributions of our nearly 200 peer academic coaches, coordinators, program ambassadors, and tutors!

Each February the Student Learning Center celebrates Black History Month—a time to recognize and honor the rich history, achievements, and contributions of Black Americans.

Envisioned by historian Carter G. Woodson, what began as a weeklong celebration in 1926, grew to a month in 1976.
