The YWCA Berkeley/Oakland is organizing its 31st Annual Shadow Day! Shadow Day hosts underserved high school students from the East Bay to shadow a UC Berkeley student and explore their future goals in a supportive environment. Mentees have the opportunity to attend college classes, tour campus, and get a glimpse of undergraduate life through panels, activities, and events.

All comments and inquiries can be directed to shadowday@ywca-berkeley.org.
