The Student Lobby Conference (SLC) is an annual event that brings UC students to the State Capitol for the opportunity to develop lobbying skills, learn more about issues affecting students and California higher education, and directly engage elected officials on these issues.

SLC 2017 will be March 25-27 at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento and the California State Capitol Building.
