editor’s note Hello UC Berkeley Circle K! My name is Caroline Lobel and I will be proudly serving you all as Publications Chair for the 2022-2023 term! I’m currently a first-year Society & Environment major with a love for media, design, and photography. I am so excited to make and contribute pretty graphics and newsletters to our wonderful club this term. I’ve been part of the Kiwanis family since my freshman year in high school through Key Club and now I’m here at Circle K! Being in Circle K as a general member this past year has been so much fun and I look forward to getting more involved from here on out. Throughout this term, I’d love to get to know all of you lovely members and get closer with my fellow board members. I’m not the most outgoing person, but I am so approachable and am always down to have a good conversation about boba, cat memes, etc etc. Feel free to reach out to me whenever about whatever! Looking forward to serving you, Caroline Lobel

outgoing president remark It sure has been a crazy year, hasn’t it? There are not enough words in the dictionary that can accurately portray how honored I am to have served as the UC Berkeley Circle K President for the 2021-2022 term, and I’m so impressed and beyond proud of everyone involved with this club. We have come a long, long way – starting off the term completely virtually, transitioning back to in-person operations in August, meeting so many new faces, and making friends with all of those new faces. But, UCBCKI’s passion for service and resilience has driven us forward and brought us to achieve more than we have ever before! Whether this was your first year with Circle K or your last, I am so happy to have met each and every one of you, and I hope this organization has been a worthwhile part of your college experience. Each member brings something fresh to our club, and I will remember all of you always. Thank you everyone for making Circle K one of my homes away from home. As I wrap up my time here at UC Berkeley, I know that the memories I’ve made in this club will be with me no matter where I go, and the friendships I’ve been lucky enough to make will last a lifetime. I’ll miss Circle K so much, but I would never trade my experience for anything else. Lastly, good luck on finals, stay safe and healthy, and congratulations to the Class of 2022- we did it! I love you all and will miss being together here with Circle K. Sincerely, Sarah Guo | 2021-2022 UCBCKI President
incoming president remark Hello beautiful people! My name is Ilse and I am so excited to serve you as your 20222023 club president! I wanted to start this off with saying thank you so much to the 2021-2022 board for being so patient and welcoming to us new A-board members who were learning our way around campus for the very first time this year. I know that must’ve been a challenge but you all did it so seamlessly and I really wanted to thank you all for the help, especially to Sarah and Brandon! I also want to thank Chris and Ana for being amazing advisors. They are so patient and really thoughtful with the way they offer advice and I feel like I have a lot of support on my side coming into this new role because of them. To the new 2022-2023 board, I would like to thank you all for applying and being a part of the face of this organization! I am so excited to get to know you all much better and assist you all with your great ideas and plans for this club. My goal is to make sure all of your ideas are heard and that you feel like a leader, in whichever way that definition means to you. To our club as a whole, thank you for being so consistent and being the place where many of us come to find comfort and support in the craziness that is Berkeley. It is so nice and really a comforting feeling after a hectic day to go to an event and see friendly and familiar faces. A place where these faces remember your name, know of some events going on in your life and asking you about them. It’s a place where everyone is seen and heard and in many ways this organization is not just a club, but a community. We had such great memories this past year like welcome week, FTC, our fall banquet, DCON and more and it feels so weird to see it come to an end. But I am so excited to see how many new members we can welcome into our space and all the great memories we can make this next term! I hope that coming into this new role, I make you all proud and be a friend whenever you need someone! Thank you all for trusting me and I hope you all have a safe and healthy summer break!
