Providing encouragement and support and maintaining open communication are the best ways to be involved during your son's or daughter's time at UCSB. In addition, you might want to visit campus, attend events, or consider donating to a UCSB student affairs program of particular interest to you. There are many ways parents can learn more about UCSB and make a difference in their student's campus and college experience. For more information about becoming involved at UCSB, please contact Gaucho Parents.
