Bruin Life UCLA is a school rich in tradition despite its young age. Although sixty years might not seem like much to the layman, it has been plenty of time to build the kinds of traditions that are important to Building tradition the spirit and body of every Bruin. Then again, there are a few traditions that are not as widely known to all Bruins and yet are an essential part of today ' s UCLA campus experience.

Image of From its position atop the Janss steps, Royce Hall has seen the rest of the campus spring up in every direction. Built in 1929, Royce Hall ' s dual towers were the cornerstone of UCLA, anchoring the northwest corner of the quad shared with Haines Hall, Kinsey Hall, and Powell Library. Royce brought a touch of Italy to the sheep pastures of Westwood as it was modeled after Milan ' s San Ambrogio church, exhib- iting Romanesque ar- chitecture. The eloquent edifice was named for Josiah Royce, a University of California graduate and prominent Harvard facul- ty member. Royce has served as the predominant symbol of the university from the beginning. In fact, UCLA and Royce Hall were practically synonymous, as the mention of one in- evitably conjured images of the other. The rela- tionship was so close that Royce was designated the new official logo for UCLA items and the famil- iar profile of the historic facade appeared on everything from notebooks to T-shirts. Although Royce in- spired admiration in its observers, it was not merely a landmark. It housed numerous classrooms, conference rooms, and academic departments, as well as rehersal rooms and a large auditorium for the performing arts. Royce has hosted a wide array of speakers, plays, or- chestras, dance troupes, and pop artists ranging from Albert Einstein, to Luciano Pavorotti, to Jef- ferson Starship. -Rick Marquardt Royce Hall 17
