The UAC is funded by membership dues, and a portion of this money is reserved for our Sponsorship Fund, which is funding available to support personal expeditions undertaken by UAC members. Support from the Sponsorship Fund can come in many ways, as determined by the UAC Committee. In the true spirit of Common Adventure trips, the UAC does not organize instructional, risk-managed trips. Our events and activities have no specific leaders. We hold general events for members to make realistic assessments of their skill levels and others', and each trip employs judgment and decision-making from every participant.
Members are responsible for making their own decisions, and understanding their own limitations.
The UAC is open to all PSU students, faculty and staff, and the PSU community at large. New members may join at any time. Join soon, as members joining after the beginning of the fiscal year will not have their dues pro-rated.
