<p>not to be a negative ned, </p>
<p>but there is not a lot of black bruins @ UCLA. Im not saying that you a very rare breed, you will see them but they are not as prevalent as polar bears or even brown bruins.</p>
<p>Here is a video that was made regarding that situation:</p>

<p>about a year ago there was an article by a professor that says criticized the UCLA admission process stating that too many unqualified black people were being admitted: [url=<a href=“http://dailybruin.com/2012/10/23/findings-by-law-professor-suggest-that-ucla-admissions-may-be-violating-prop-209/]Findings”>Findings by law professor suggest that UCLA Admissions may be violating Prop 209 - Daily Bruin]Findings</a> by law professor suggest that UCLA Admissions may be violating Prop 209 | Daily Bruin](<a href=“The Black Bruins [Spoken Word] - Sy Stokes - YouTube”>The Black Bruins [Spoken Word] - Sy Stokes - YouTube)</p>
<p>according to him (paraphrasing), these students dont belong at UCLA or Berkeley but perhaps at other mid-tier UC’s or CSU’s. very offensive paper but you must realize that the higher up you go in life you will find people that feel like that about minorities.</p>
<p>anyways I myself have been part of the Black Business Student Association, which is a very cool club [Upcoming</a> Events](<a href=“Student Organizations | UCLA Student Organizations, Leadership & Engagement”>Student Organizations | UCLA Student Organizations, Leadership & Engagement) </p>
<p>The point I want to make is that if any of you want to become Black Bruins or Black Bears (UCLA or Berkeley), dont let the haters intimidate you.</p>
