Former Presidents Reunite
For the first time in several years, former chairs and presidents of the Alumni Association Board of Directors spanning three decades, reunited to discuss the state of the organization. Led by the current chair Albert Lemus ’91, this lively group discussed organizational priorities, including expanding outreach to alumni, returning to the head title of president and continuing a strong Association representation with UC Regents.

Alumni in Entertainment Share Insights With Students
Last month, more than 500 students solicited free practical advice from alumni professionals in various entertainment fields. Like producer Frank Marshall ’68, more than 100 alumni volunteered their time at Entertainment Networking Night to connect with students and fellow Bruins in their industry.

We Give Because We Are Bruins
Bob Weeks ’64, J.D. ’67 and Nancy (Rockoff) Weeks ’64, M.A. ’66 are longtime supporters of Alumni Scholarships. They feel a sense of pride and inspiration from the caliber of students UCLA attracts and they want to be there for the next generation.

A Cuban Experience
Alex ’08 and Kristina ’06 Gruenberg’s tour of Cuba with UCLA Alumni Travel are full of interesting stories. They reminisce about their favorite foods, help dispel some common myths and even recount a surprise Beyoncé sighting.
