Daily Bruin has published an article, "Center proposal faces another setback," outlining major concerns both by the UC Board of Regents and by the UCLA students. Here's the link of the full article for you to read before we hear the speakers and subsequent QA. Bring lots of questions. It should be timely, informative and lively discussion.
Why I personally like the UCLA Faculty Center? A few photos capture the spirit of the Center that I have known for the past 37 years. It has been an intellectual AGORA for the UCLA.
