Hi [[FirstName]]. UCLA ONE Offers More Ways to Connect. Did you know that the online forum for Bruins helping Bruins lets you search and message alumni by career field, stage and location? There are also group forums based on industry, job listings posted by alumni and a myriad of Bruin events. Start exploring the number ONE UCLA networking site.

Inspiring Black Bruins
UCLA has a rich history of African Americans who have made significant contributions to UCLA, Los Angeles and society. In the third part of a continuing series, we highlight pioneers through the decades - activists, artists, athletes and astronauts, to name a few - who make us all proud to be Bruins.

UCLA Slang
To be a True Bruin, you can’t just walk the walk - you have to talk the talk. UCLA students are always coming up with new ways to describe the world around them. Can you decode it? Click thru to see what Bruins are saying these days. Email us the UCLA slang you used in your day.

Coffee Socials on Feb. 3
Coffee Social Day is an opportunity for parents and family members of current UCLA students to foster connections with one another on a regional level. As UCLA alumni, you are invited to participate as ambassadors, sharing your knowledge and experiences with Bruin families! No RSVP necessary. Look on the map for a Coffee Social happening near you and join the fun in your blue and gold.

Bruin Valentines
Many amazing things happen at UCLA. For these five couples, perhaps nothing was more amazing than falling in love. Whether it's reuniting with an old college flame decades later or one twin marrying another twin to have a set of twins of their own, read their unique stories of how it all began and where they are today.

Exclusive Alumni Appreciation Package
Good taste, times two! Book the exclusive Alumni Appreciation Package at the Luskin Conference Center and Hotel and enjoy a three-course dinner at Plateia during your stay, then take home a keepsake copy of “UCLA: The First Century.” Call 855-522-8252 for availability.
