Special Areas Research

      Every area has unique qualities, but what makes any specific area ³special² to you?

 

      How do special areas affect the lives of students?

 

      By looking at what areas and spaces work and what don¹t can we find how to create a greater sense of unity and campus space understanding?

 

      Can we use what we learn about special areas to improve all areas and spaces on the UC Santa Cruz campus?
