The series will include a UMOJA Program reception on May 13, an evening of entertainment, food, and an opportunity to meet the Triton community in partnership with San Diego City College. This is just one glimpse of the kind of love and support you will have.вЂќ Transfer Triton BSU OvernightДЄ subsequent BSU Overnight Program is planned to welcome UC San DiegoвЂ™s newly admitted Black transfer students from May 12 to 17. вЂњWe know you have your choice of which institution you want to go to, and we hope you choose UC San Diego because we have a community that warmly welcomes you. вЂњIt is such a joy and a privilege to have you here,вЂќ shared Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Becky Petitt.

Throughout the evening, congratulations were offered as well as insights about what makes the UC San Diego family special. UC San Diego leadership, faculty and staff attended the event to offer congratulations and a warm welcome to newly admitted first-year students and their families. Smiles and lively conversation drew in the guests-UC San DiegoвЂ™s newly admitted first year Black students and their families-for the annual event designed to introduce prospective Tritons to the campusвЂ™s tight-knit community of Black students, staff, leadership and alumni. There were no strangers at the Black Family Get Together everyone who walked through the door of the Black Resource Center on April 1 formed instant connections.
