| Welcome to the latest edition of What’s Current, our monthly newsletter. This month, we’re celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month at UCLA Anderson and recognizing the success and diversity of this key community on our campus and elsewhere. As we race toward the end of the academic year, we’re also highlighting stories and videos about Alumni Weekend, the |
Riordan Programs’ 35th anniversary gala, the inspiring legacy of Professor Bill Cockrum and several alumni and others who make us very proud. With June almost upon us, I want to thank all of you for everything you continue to do to support and strengthen our community. We’re looking forward to commencement and other events celebrating our 2022 graduates.
