mpu s event s 2 a: a. en Q ■z. en CO Students bring life to the UCLA campus through music, film, and speech There were many rewards that accompanied being a student at UCLA. To reaffirm the obvious, not only was UCLA a wonderful academic institution to attend, where students received access to state of the art learning facilities and were ottered a top-notch education, but on another level, it also provided them with various venues of recreation and entertainment to enjoy on campus. In particular, the Campus Events staff, part of the greater USAC, played a significant role in helping to make this happen. We bring lite to campus through music, him, and speech, said Ryan Seng, a second-year economics student ot Campus Events. Throughout the school year, the Campus Events organization at UCLA sponsored divers e forms of entertainment, appealing to all members of the UCLA community. Among the many activities organized by the Campus Events staff, one of the most popular was the screenings of movies in the Ackerman Grand Ballroom, which included movies that had already been released in theaters, as well as sneaks. The sneak movies, in particular, were always widely anticipated and attended, as they were previews of films not out in theaters yet. As Allen Eramya, a second-year aerospace engineering student, so rightly put it, ...the free sneaks and $2 movies ottered by the Campus Events office do a great service to the students as well as provide a special incentive for being a UCLA student. Activities sponsored by Campus Events also included the music concerts in Westwood Plaza. Other Campus Events available to the UCLA community included tree screenings of films at the renowned James Bridges Theatre in Melnitz Hall of the School of Film and Television, where audience members could enjoy a film in a real movie theater, with a big screen, plush seats, and stadium-like seating. Additional Campus Events for students and the greater UCLA community to enjoy included classical concerts, given by the UCLA Philharmonic Orchestra, in Schoenberg Hall, as well as various concerts and plays in the distinguished auditorium of Royce Hall. UCLA provided the members ot its community with a wide array ot options to choose trom and to enrich their experience at the school. Students did not have to go further than Wesrwood Plaza, Ackerman Grand Ballroom, the James Bridges Theater in Melnitz, Royce Hall, or Schoenberg Hall to take advantage of these valuable opportunities. Singing into the microphone, a local band gets a chance to advertise their music to the public. This opportunity was available to anyone, as long as the bands and other performing groups contacted Campus Events soon enough. Nathan Wang
