Temporary Service Adjustments
Lower-than-normal staffing levels cannot keep pace with traditional levels of service the UCI community prides itself on and deserves. We hope this situation is temporary and ask for your understanding. Please accept our sincerest apology as we do all we can to resolve the current staffing challenge. UCI student organizations (RCOs) and UCI departments are our first and highest priority at this time.
Note to off-campus groups: Ring Mall is only available for information tabling
