What is Connections at Berkeley? 

Connections at Berkeley is a week-long, campus-wide invitation to pause, reconnect, and celebrate the power of Connection—to self, to each other, and to something bigger. 

From March 16–23, the campus will come alive with shared experiences, large and small, that support all dimensions of well-being, belonging, and curiosity while strengthening compassion across the University.

This initiative unites UC Berkeley’s departments, colleges, student groups, and programs around one transformative but straightforward goal: to make well-being visible, collective, and actionable.

Why it matters?

Today, members of our community are seeking greater meaning, belonging, and hope in daily campus life. Connection at Berkeley responds to that call by:

  • Lifting up mental and general well-being as shared priorities.
  • Celebrating discovery through connection—how learning and thriving reinforce each other.
  • Reducing barriers to participation by encouraging low-cost, easy-to-join, inclusive activities.
  • Modeling a culture of care that strengthens the foundation for excellence, innovation, and collaboration. 

When we connect, we flourish—individually and collectively!

How to take part?

During the week, there are plenty of events and actvities that you can take part in hosted by departments, programs, and groups across campus.

Use the Event calendar to find events that interest you. Some are audience specific or open to all and some require a sign-up, but many are drop-in and you can attend as many as you like.
