8Spend More Time with Loved Ones

 

Your most rewarding resolution will be spending more quality time with the most important people in your life. Take the family on a week-long vacation to Bruin Woods, or reminisce with friends on campus while staying at the UCLA Meyer and Renee Luskin Conference Center. The beauty of your surroundings will only help you forge stronger bonds and lasting memories.

 

9Be More Giving

 

If you’ve got it, share it! Alumni are one of UCLA’s most invaluable resources. Give of yourself as a volunteer, a mentor or a donor. Whether it’s on UCLA ONE or supporting Alumni Scholarships, take the time to help a Bruin in need. As Coach Wooden said: “Your greatest joy comes from doing something for another, especially when it was done with no thought of something in return.”

 

10Get Reconnected with UCLA

 

Whether you live near or far from campus, there are opportunities-a-plenty for you to get involved or attend a UCLA event. And regardless of when you graduated, it’s never too soon or too late to visit your alma mater. You will always have a home at the James West Alumni Center. You will always be UCLA!
