To provide the UC San Diego community with resourceful consultations regarding operations of student organizations, and student involvement while fostering a welcoming environment. 

What Is the SILC Program?

The Student Involvement Leadership Consultant (SILC) program is a peer educator program coordinated by the Center for Student Involvement (CSI) at UCSD.  Each year 15 SILCs are selected and trained to answer general questions about student organizations, and promote leadership and involvement opportunities. SILCs staff the CSI Front Desk as the first point of contact for student organization principal members, and refer student leaders to various university staff, as needed.  SILCs also conduct outreach at campus-wide events, support all CSI programs, and host events to promote student organization to the UCSD student population to help students get involved!
