About the Cal Alumni Association

The Cal Alumni Association (CAA) provides all Cal graduates with rewarding
connections to the University, fellow alumni, and current students. Founded
by the original graduates of the University of California in 1872, CAA today
represents nearly half a million alumni living across the world. With a
mission of advancing and promoting the interests of the University, CAA is
committed to providing essential programs and services designed to keep
alumni of all ages and interests connected to the University and each other.

Mission
Our mission is to advance and promote the interests of the University of
California, Berkeley by connecting alumni with each other and our alma
mater. Together with our campus partners, we play an integral role in
informing, engaging, and inspiring alumni to support the University by:

• Participating and volunteering in University programs and events

• Acting as ambassadors and advocates on behalf of the University
• Giving to the University

Vision
Our vision is to be UC Berkeley’s primary campus-wide alumni relations
organization responsible for building and engaging a broad alumni
community that supports the University. Together, as a globally connected
network of Cal alumni, we keep Cal golden.

A MESSAGE FROM
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
AND BOARD PRESIDENT
The Cal Alumni Association (CAA) is about being a part of
a great and enduring community, ensuring the future of
UC Berkeley while honoring the past, and engaging the
present. As we celebrate 145 years of golden fellowship,
there’s no better time to be part of this wonderful
community. We offer a common space in which to
gather— a true sense of belonging for hundreds of
thousands of Golden Bears.
CAA is committed to our alumni, our outstanding scholars,
and the University. It’s what we do. We’re about fun, we’re
about learning, and we’re about ensuring Cal’s future as
the best university in the world — and we are growing!
This year, CAA launched the Alumni Engagement Expansion
initiative to increase our investment in the programs and
services that support Cal alumni and students. Our goal is
to enlarge the community of alumni who come together to
forge new friendships with fellow Bears and deepen lifelong
relationships begun during their time at Cal.
There are so many ways that being part of this vibrant
community makes life better, richer, and more exciting.
CAA awards nearly 800 Alumni Scholarships each year.
Our scholarships play an important role in making a Cal
education possible for these deserving students. We are so
grateful for the many hours our alumni volunteers spend
evaluating hundreds of impressive applications and ensuring
that we continue to produce the world’s greatest scholars.
2 3
In an era of deep budget cuts and increasing public policy
challenges we are committed, as graduates of the number
one public university in the world, to be a voice for
UC Berkeley. Through the revitalized Cal Advocacy program,
thousands of Cal alumni, students, faculty, and staff engage
legislators at the state and national levels to fight for public
education. Cal advocates are a diverse and vocal group
who welcome the increasing number of alumni lending their
voices to our future.
But it’s not all about fighting the good fight. We’re also
leading alumni to adventure and lifelong learning through
programs like Cal Discoveries Travel, where exciting
destinations await the traveler under the guidance of
knowledgeable faculty and experts. Closer to home, we’re
building memories and friendships at the Lair of the Golden
Bear —where generations of families enjoy camping at
Cal’s signature summer destination or gather at the
Pinecrest Chalet in the beautiful Stanislaus National Forest.
Our fall and spring seasons bring tailgates and Hoops
Parties, where hundreds of loyal Bears get together to hear
from coaches, eat, drink, and root for Cal. Current-events
programs like CALIFORNIA Live! provide a lively forum
to hear from experts and alumni who take on the most
important issues of the day. Our award-winning CALIFORNIA
magazine reports on the latest in research, culture,
and innovation.
2016 ANNUAL REPORT
CAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
CAA provides ongoing support to hundreds of new and
mid-career professionals through The Berkeley Network,
offering professional-development webinars and an
expanding program of opportunities to network with
new and seasoned alumni from a range of industries.
This year we launched the first in an ongoing series of
career-navigation events for alumnae, featuring some
of Cal’s most successful women.
CAA volunteers spend thousands of hours each year in
an effort to keep Cal golden and stay connected to our
extraordinary, world-renowned alma mater. We serve nearly
half a million Cal graduates and support more than 80
chapters around the country.

FORMER LEADERSHIP AWARD
SCHOLAR GIVES BACK
Steve Sulack ’03, M.S. ’05 isn’t new to leadership. As an
undergraduate, he was an outstanding Leadership Award
scholar and treasurer of the Pi Tau Sigma Mechanical
Engineering Honors Society. Now, he gives back to the
community that supported him as a young student through
the Sulack Family Leadership Scholarship he established with
CAA. “I remember my connection to Cal through CAA. As a
scholar, I appreciated that it was alumni giving back to Cal
students and hoped that someday I could do the same.”
During graduate school, Steve worked on doing satellite
simulation of scapecraft for the SNAP program to stare
into deep space looking for supernovae. He was one of the
three students assisting Dr. David Auslander at the Lawrence
Berkeley Labs on this project. After earning a masters in
mechanical engineering, Steve worked as a spacecraft
controls engineer at Lockheed Martin.
As an undergraduate, he worked at the Space Sciences
Lab at Berkeley on another satellite project, CHIPS, which
observed local interstellar plasma. A former engineering
colleague from the lab eventually recruited him to Google,
where he now works at X (the Alphabet research and
development facility formerly known as Google X) for
projects like self-driving cars and robotics.
“Google has a culture that really supports and encourages
its employees to give back to the community,” says Steve.
“I appreciate that CAA helps students directly and that they
cast a wide net to students of diverse backgrounds. This
made the scholarship a good fit for my family. I’m grateful I
could do this in my 30s so I can continue to be involved and
do more over time.”

Steve also helps build the relationship between CAA
and Google through the Google Cal Corporate Alumni
Committee. Now numbering more than 1,200 the
Cal-Googlers have come together to build a community,
volunteer, and provide resources for the University. They
collaborate on projects including scholarship application
readings at the Googleplex, as well as bringing students
to Google for tours and events that celebrate the Cal
contribution to Google. Steve smiles, “It’s fun to be part
of a Cal cluster within a Stanford-founded company.”
Raised in Southern California, Steve lives with his wife
and daughter in the South Bay and likes having proximity
to Berkeley. “Cal is unique for having so many top-rated
departments,” he says. “It’s a great place to explore any
interest.” He would encourage any student interested in
attending Berkeley to visit their top colleges. “When I visited
the Berkeley campus, I knew it was the place for me— it
felt like I belonged. Put yourself in the environment, talk to
students, see what life is like, and see how you feel about
it. Gather the most data that you can to make an informed
decision, and then make the best of it,” explains Steve.
Currently, Steve enjoys spending much of his time parenting.
His wife is also a Cal alum and, according to Steve, the best
thing that happened to him at Cal. The first Golden Bears in
their families, they are gradually introducing their daughter
to the Cal culture. Along with Cal football, he continues
to support The Leadership Award and participate in Cal-
Googler events. “Cal was a big part of my life. I like to have
these continuing ties. I feel very connected to Cal and look
forward to the future.”
