Student L e Alternative Perspective Diversity was a priority of UCLA, and through the six alternative presses, the cam- pus was able to hear many differ- ent voices on canipus. The alternative presses included Ha ' am (the Jewish stu- dents ' newspaper). La Geiitc dc Aztlaii (newspaper for the Latino community), NoDimo (the Afro- American students ' newsmagaz- ine). Pacific Ties (the Asian-Ameri- can and Pacific Islander news magazine). Ten Percent (UCLA ' s Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Maga- zine), and Together, (UCLA ' s Feminist Magazine). Each publication was distrib- uted biquarterly as students took advantage of their right to free- dom of speech. The publications ' strong stances on issues such as racism, homophobism, and unity were courageously displayed with each issue. With the many ideals and beliefs on campus, the alternative presses offered unique perspec- tives as to their views or the cam- pus and the world. —Clarissa Aesquivel R Tina Eshaghpour 24 Publications

DB circulated 22,000 copies daily, and was distributed on various kiosks throughout cam- gus as well as in Westwood and rentwood. The Bruin saw changes in its format this year through the addition of briefs on the front ¥age describing inside stories, his made the Bruin ' s contents more easily visible. Some major stories that the Bruin covered extensively were the SanFrancisco earthquake and the abortion controversy. The Bruin ' s staff dedicated long hours of reporting and writing to produce a paper that covered many facets of student life. —Clarissa Aesquivel Jonathan Reinstein 26 Publications
