I GOT
INVOLVED!
“At UCSD the
overwhelming focus
on classes, grades,
projects, etc. can leave
communication, social,
and other interpersonal
skills underdeveloped.
I really liked how our
seminar gave me the
chance to take a few
hours a week to make
sure I don’t forget about
those important skills,
which I know will benefit
me both professionally
and personally.”

college in ranking measuring “what colleges are doing for the country”.
I GOT
INVOLVED!
“Building relationships
with the kids and
watching their skills
grow has been the most
rewarding part of being
at McGill. Watching
those who struggled
at the beginning of the
year slowly gain the
skills. Learning from
my teacher about how
to teach. And gaining
hands-on experience
in the classroom that
will definitely help me
with my future career
decisions.”

GREEK LIFE
Your home away from home:
joining a sorority or fraternity
UC San Diego is home to 20 sororities and 23 fraternities, including18 culturally based
Greek letter organizations. Over 2,220 Triton fraternity men and sorority women take part
in this 200-year old international tradition. Greek members often view their fraternity or
sorority as their home away from home. Fraternities and sororities offer opportunities to
cultivate bonds with students who have similar values, serve the community, and develop
leadership skills in and outside of the chapter experience.
I GOT
INVOLVED!
“As a new student, it
may be challenging
to establish lifelong
friendships. Greek Life is
about finding your home

STUDENT VETERANS
RESOURCE CENTER
Connect with a community of student veterans,
active military, and military families
“I’ve been attending UC San Diego for nearly two years, and I never used to stay on campus because
I never really felt comfortable here. I always felt too old and that my experiences differed from the
other students. Now I feel like I have a place where I truly fit. I spend more time on campus, stop by
the Center to say hello and see what everyone is doing. I feel at home at the Center, and with those
who frequent it.” - Student Veteran
I GOT
INVOLVED!
“It’s a place we can
voice our opinions
as Veterans, and
receive services and
assistance specific
to our needs. It’s
also a great place to
relax, study, work, and
connect with other
veterans and veteran
affiliates.”
- Jerald Macachor,
USN Veteran

TRADITION
TRITON JUNKYARD DERBY
Inspired by a popular
TV show, UC San Diego’s
Engineering community started the
Junkyard Derby in 2004. Engineering students
scour the local community for discarded materials,
contributing to a makeshift junkyard. Student teams then
rush to grab the best “junk” with which to engineer their speed
machines. The teams race down Peterson Hill in the middle of UC San
Diego’s campus with crowds of onlookers cheering them on and casting their
votes for “most creative” vehicle.

TRADITION
WELCOME WEEK UNOLYMPICS
During Unolympics, all six
colleges participate in zany
competitions that range from an obstacle
course to a balloon relay and a dance routine.
Colleges vie for the coveted Golden Shoe Trophy (and
bragging rights) by participating in a series of spirited events,
competing in cheers, games, and dances.
A UCSD Tradition since 1982

BiomedWired has recently launched a non-profit
student organization at UC San Diego. The vision of the
organization is to connect top tier students in the biomedical
field to companies who demand highly-qualified applicants.
By reaching out to the next generation of students at UC San
Diego, the organization hopes to solve the inherent problem
that exists in the biomedical world in regard to a disconnect
that exists between students and employers. By providing
various opportunities to obtain hands-on experience and
make professional connections, students in the biomedical
profession will find it easier to initially excel in their
professional careers.
Furthermore, this organization will create a niche
where the students can find the resources they need in order
to consolidate their job search and network easier.
Additionally, there are hopes to use these tools to facilitate
a strong network between students and biomedical
professionals both in the greater San Diego region and
internationally.
Visit us on Facebook and check out our website
www.biomedwired.com to keep updated with
upcoming events. Also, join us for our Biomedical
GBM during the 1st week of fall quarter!
BiomedWired is the FIRST ONLINE
BIOMEDICAL PORTAL of its kind to create
a professional environment exclusively for
those participating in biomedical
endeavors.
”How could I not jump at the
chance to work at Biomed Wired?
It is a one of a kind opportunity to
meet and establish relationships
within the biomedical community.
I’m more confident than ever that
I will succeed.”
Ted Alejandre
BiomedWired, Networking
