We are just 42 days from election day. Do you feel informed about the current candidates and ballot measures? Do you know if you are registered to vote? It's not too late to learn more and find out. UCLA Alumni diversity networks will be participating in get-out-the-vote campaigns in the days leading up to the election. You can be a part of the movement by checking your voter status or registering to vote today.
Be sure to follow UCLA Pilipino Alumni Association on Facebook and Instagram for their #YouVoteWeDance campaign as well as our other networks for ways you can help get out the vote. To stay civically and culturally engaged, here are this week's offerings.
About "This is Bruin Life":
