UC Riverside homecoming was one for the books! We co-hosted a phenomenal mixer with UCR African Student Programs. It was a time filled with networking, reconnecting, and a dynamic panel of speakers featuring UCR Black Alumni who provide insights into their industries. Afterward, we enjoyed a concert featuring Flo Rida.
Special thanks to the University of California, Riverside, and the UCR Alumni Association for making this happen! Thanks to alumni-owned Blue Mountain Cuisine for catering our event, and a big shout out to everyone who came out. Thank you for supporting our Black scholars on campus 💙💛🐻
