I am currently studying at a CCC, but I want to start having some research related extra curriculars. Do professors normally take volunteers outside of their institution? I wanted to email UCB professors, but I wanted to know how realistic it is for them to actually take volunteers. Any tips would be appreciated!! I was also going to email to start in the upcoming spring semester, if that has any effect.
