Back in the day in 2006...the CCC lived in a two story old mailroom located where the new engineering building is now. We were "On the Move" to an interim space before moving to our permanent home in Price Center East. A series of programs called "Our Story" was our way of saying good bye to the Cross. We tagged the building and showed our love and memories of our time in that space. It was hard to say goodbye, but the CCC is not just about the physical space. The community followed us in all of our transitions. We appreciate you all in the care, love, and energy you all bring into the Center. Regardless of where we live, the CCC will always be a home away from home.
What stories do you have to tell? Visit our Tumblr and be sure to attach #ccctb20 to any of your social media posts (Tumblr, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter). Get excited and be a part of our project of celebrating 20 years in the making of CCC love and community. For more information please contact Edwina Welch at [email protected].

American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs
Co-presented by the San Diego Asian Film Festival
Friday | November 8 | 7:15PM Digiplex Hazard Center
The CCC is giving away free tickets to current UCSD students while supplies last! This is on a first come-first serve basis and you must sign up with Joseph Ramirez at the front desk. Film Description: Audience Award, 2013 Los Angeles Film Festival. We would all be so lucky to know a Grace Lee Boggs: activist, feminist, author, speaker, and philosopher. As of this writing she is still socially active at age 98. Grandmotherly in appearance but fierce and outspoken - sometimes to the point of making people cry during arguments - she embodies the spirit of the words she once spoke: "You don't choose the times you live in, but you do choose who you want to be."
