The events that the Undergraduate Community Initiative (UCI) supports are central to its mission of connecting students to each other and the broader community and creating a campus where students flourish not only as scholars but as whole people.
Some of UCI's event series include: "Fac' to Table," a small lunch conversation at a reserved table with a Columbia faculty member and fellow undergrad students; "We Were Once Students, Too" a conversation series that brings Columbia College alumni back to reflect on how the College helped shape who they are; and "Our Stories," a student-led storytelling seminar with special guests and prompts to spark discussion.
