Alumni Affairs
You are a Gaucho for Life

When you find out that someone is a Gaucho, there is a sense of family and a feeling of shared pride in your alma mater. Our alumni comprise a community of more than 230,000, and it’s a community to which you belong.

Here are just a few things that Gauchos have in common:

  1. Making friends in our classes and shared spaces in Isla Vista
  2. Walks on the beach
  3. Inspirational professors
  4. Avoiding rush hour on the bike paths
  5. Commencement day

As an alum, you’ve already contributed to the rich legacy of UC Santa Barbara’s history and future. For that, we are profoundly grateful. Alumni are already giving, connecting, networking, learning, and mentoring. 

So how can you get involved? Perhaps it is time to link up with UC Santa Barbara in a way you may not have considered: through supporting UCSB Alumni. The Gaucho for Life Fund sustains all programming and events that benefit UC Santa Barbara alumni and students. 

Please give today! Your support on Give Day ensures that UC Santa Barbara and the Gaucho community flourishes.
