Committee purpose and goals:

The Social Responsibility Committee is a diverse group of individuals throughout the university that collaborate with neighboring community representatives and organizations. SRC exists to advance positive relations and to maintain consistent communication between the university and its communities. As a part of giving back, Westcliff is offering scholarships to designated non-profit partners and their communities in need. The SRC meets monthly, with oversight or attendance from the president and senior leadership once a year. Upcoming Committee Meetings are monthly on the second week of the month.
