Membership
Why join the BSCAA?
Connect with other co-opers
Volunteer with current students
Stay up to date on co-op and alumni news
Give back to the BSC and your fellow co-opers
Access to events and opportunities
Your support allows us to connect alumni with current members and each other through events, giving, and meaningful collaboration with local partners.
Just because we moved out of the co-ops doesn’t mean we’ll ever move on! We love the BSC, and we love our alumni.
Most importantly, becoming a BSCAA member helps ensure that the BSC can continue to serve generations of future students, supporting its mission to provide affordable housing and make higher education more accessible.
Donations from our board of directors cover our administrative program expenses, so your membership dues directly contribute to our student and alumni programming and financial support.
In the past couple years, our membership has successfully:
-
Donated tens of thousands of dollars to support the BSC and those impacted by COVID-19
-
Created a fund to offer bail to students arrested for ICE-related offenses
-
Hosted a series of virtual skill-shares showcasing local cooperatives
-
Prioritized our explicit commitments to diversity and accessibility
-
Divested our funds from fossil fuel companies & adopted a responsible investment policy
-
Provided care packages to students during finals, and groceries to those in quarantine
-
Explored ways to support students and alumni in acts of civil disobedience during unprecedented times of societal revolution
