Bill Klug Tribute

Remembering Professor Bill Klug, M.S. '99
The memory of Dr. Klug was honored in a multitude of ways by the Bruin faithful. From vigils and eulogies to letters and poetry, they expressed their sorrow for this tragic loss and celebrated the life of a fallen colleague, adviser, teacher and friend. UCLA set up The Klug Family Support Fund which directly supports his immediate family.
