- September 18, 2024Mike McCormack: Learning from and Doing for OthersOn a chilly October evening, monsters and urban legends take over UCLA’s residential community. Covel Commons’ Grand Horizon Ballroom, a popular venue for both professional and student events, is transformed for the Haunted Hill extravaganza. A Halloween tradition coordinated by UCLA’s residential student government, Haunted Hill is both a spooky experience and a complex development opportunity for student leaders, such as event production skills, budget management, vendor coordination and more. At the crux of the production is UCLA Residential Life’s Assistant Director of Leadership and Involvement, Mike McCormack.
- September 18, 2024Club Sports: Going the DistanceWhen you think of “club sports,” what do you imagine? Perhaps one of the biggest misconceptions about club sports is that it is not as legitimate as the popular varsity-level sports that fall under the NCAA: football, basketball, volleyball, to name a few. This couldn’t be further from the truth. UCLA Club Sports athletes often compete nationally and adhere to strict practice and game schedules, much like their Division 1 peers. In fact, Club Sports is a signature program in UCLA Student Affairs that also doubles as a transformative student leadership experience.
