On Campus Resources & Programs


UCR's Department of English invites you to join acclaimed writer, Manuel Muñoz, for reading and discussion of The Consequences (Graywolf Press, 2022), his newest short story collection. The stories tell of the mundane and extraordinary events in the daily lives of Mexican and Mexican American farmworkers in the small towns of California's Central Valley during the 1980s. Muñoz's characters navigate messy and often violent realities, from the quotidian struggles of everyday life to the terror of immigration and deportation, and in his stories these realities are treated with tenderness and care.



DATE & TIME: Thursday, March 2, 2023, 3-5pm.

LOCATION: INTS 1128



*** This event is free and open to the public.



Sponsored by the Department of English. Co-sponsored by: Department of Creative Writing's Writer's Week, Tomás Rivera Chair, Office of Diversity and Inclusion, Department of Ethnic Studies, Department of Gender and Sexuality Studies, the Center for Ideas and Society, and the Latino and Latin American Research Center.

Economic Crisis Response Team (ECRT) Grant
I am pleased to inform you that the Economic Crisis Response Team (ECRT) Grant is now open for new student applications. Please review the eligibility criteria and share with students who are in need.

Students can learn more about the grant apply on our website here: https://basicneeds.ucr.edu/ecrt

ECRT Eligibility Criteria

·       Must be a UCR student enrolled in the current term (Winter 2023)

·       Must be able to demonstrate an urgent financial need related to rent, utilities, groceries, Wi-Fi bill, or phone bill with supporting documentation.

o   ECRT is not meant to assist with tuition, car insurance, car payments, credit card bills, medical/dental bills, etc.*

·       Must have a FASFA or CA Dream Act on file with financial aid office and have unmet need (unless you are an international student).

Important Information:

·       Request for ECRT support is not guaranteed and cannot be reviewed until ALL supporting documentation is submitted.

·       NEW: Middle Class Scholarship may impact eligibility for ECRT grant

·       If awarded an ECRT grant, the grant will be applied to any balance on your student account first before any excess funds are refunded to you.

I would also like to highlight that the given the criteria set by CSAC for the Middle Class Scholarship, some students may not be eligible for additional aid (including ECRT) due to no room available in their financial aid budget. We are working closely with Financial Aid to minimize the impact this may have on students however we anticipate some students may not be able to adjust their budgets to make room to award any additional aid.

Housing Assistance
As many of you know, we have a few vacancies, one of which is our Housing Specialist who provides support to students who are experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity. Currently we can assist with emergency housing through a referral from a faculty or staff member.

Please see the information below on how to refer a student:

  1.  Email referral to Basic Needs Coordinator, Vivian Gonzales- vivian.gonzalez at ucr.edu<mailto:vivian.gonzalez at ucr.edu>
     *   Please include Student Name, SID, and a brief description of the student situation.
  2.  BN Coordinator will outreach to student to schedule a housing intake meeting to determine eligibility
     *   Eligibility is determined by a variety of factors including current housing status, services already used and other resources accessible to students-including ECRT
     *   Learn more about the program here<https://basicneeds.ucr.edu/emergency-housing>

  *   Jason Wohlmuth Award for Student Health and Wellness 2023

https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=xCpim6aGnUGbnr-zP0XAVGhNvNMc4fxAlesTUsNb9C9UM1hQQU5PSTJCMDBCWTE4OTdJN1ZGRkZMWC4u


Jason Wohlmuth was a talented, enthusiastic, and adventurous UCR student. Amongst his favorite things to do were spending time with the ones he loved and using his predilection for humor to inspire smiles and laughter in those around him. Jason was selfless with his friendship, his positivity, and his service to others. Tragically, at age 21, he died from a combination of prescription medications and alcohol. Although other people were around him, no one intervened or called 911. The Jason Wohlmuth Award for Student Health & Wellness is a fund established by his parents, Drs. Joe and Cinna Wohlmuth, to build awareness, eliminate stigma, increase knowledge, and empower students with intervention skills to make a positive impact related to mental health and the misuse of alcohol and other drugs.
