Created in 1992, the University College Residence Council, or UCRC, is University College’s newest (and thus coolest) student government. While other student governments, such as the University College Literary and Athletic Society, deal with mainly extracurricular activities, only the UCRC deals with issues specific to residence life in University College. The UCRC acts as an umbrella for the individual house councils, and holds numerous residence-wide events. These activities include parties, charity toy drives, environmental awareness campaigns, and resource distribution, just to name a few.
