The CRC plays a central role in fostering academic communities on campus.  In 2009-10, the CRC became the coordinating office for the Departmental Undergraduate Groups (DUGs); that year there were fewer than 20 DUGs, and during 2018-19, 70 DUGs were on our roster!

Theories in Action is a unique opportunity for seniors to present with each other across disciplinary communities. Senior presenters often cite their attendance at TiA as an audience member as a first-year or sophomore, and how they were inspired by the accomplishments of older students.
