Parents and students scrambled around with their borrowed blue-and-yellow laundry baskets, hauling in clothing, electronics and new expectations. But move-in weekend wasn ' t the only thing that was stacked up for zero week. The start of a new school year not only brought new friends and new experiences, but also a veek full of events planned by the UCLA Alumni Assocation to help facilitate the transition into student life on campus. Both first-year and returning students lined up for the Fifth Annual Bruin Bash, which began on Sept. 23 in the Los Angeles Tennis Center. Celebrations kicked off -with a concert featuring rap artist T.L, followed by a dance in Pauley Pavilion and a free screening of The Kingdom, starring Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Chris Cooper and Jeremy Piven. With these events, first-years received their first spoonful of college sugar, and returners came back for more. Anticipation permeated the air as the cro vd piled into the stadium, and adrenaline-filled Bruins cheered and sang to the beats emanating from the speakers. All-female rap group Candy Hill and mascot Joe Bruin performed before T.L s arrival, garnering attention from the audience, and T.L ' s performance ended the concert on a high note. First-year mechanical engineering student Kev in Choi commented, I ' m not into rap, but being on the floor was energetic, so Bruin Bash [was] great. Following the concert, some trekked over to Ackerman Grand Ballroom to attend a free screening of The Kingdom, which told the story of a team of U.S. government agents sent to Saudi Arabia to investigate the bombing of an American facility. Only 400 students were allowed into the sneak preview, shown five days before its public release. Those -who hadn ' t received wristbands for the movie had the option of dancing straight into morning inside Pauley Pavilion, where the DJ kept the music playing all night. The next morning, students received a brief overview of what life outside the classroom was like at the Enormous Activities Fair, held on the Intramural Field. Vendors gave a-way free food, drinks and even haircuts as students wandered around the field, scouting for clubs that attracted their attention, while performances held others enraptured. The four-hour event gave new and returning students alike a chance to scope out the opportunities available throughout campus. The activities fair was a great way to become an active member of the student body through signing up for clubs— and who doesn ' t love free food? said Jazmine Gutierrez, a first-year molecular, cell and developmental biology student. Zero week thus gave students a glimpse of what life was like on the UCLA campus, helping the first-years assimilate into their new lives as Bruins, and reminding the returners of their own fleeting memories of freshman year, lul lllfM: A crowd of admirers cheer on their fellow students as they show off their best moves.
