History
The CRC was formed in 1999 after several community disturbances in East Lansing. The CRC was a recommendation of the Action Team task force chaired by the President of MSU.
The task force recommended an independent not-for-profit organization with a board consisting of residents and students to working on enhancing relationships and building bridges between neighbors. The concept included the establishment of a program placing students in key neighborhoods in community building roles, and other programs to bring the community together.
