UCLA hosts gatherings for peer, alumni engagement

A decades-old tradition at the University of California, Los Angeles, brings together students and alumni over a meal to build connections and trust. For three nights each spring, hundreds of University of California, Los Angeles students gather in alumni’s homes, sharing a meal among a small group and bonding over their experiences as Bruins. The initiative, Dinners for 12 Strangers, started in the 1960s as a way to unite students with diverse perspectives over dinner and has evolved over the past 50 years to include present and former UCLA students across the globe.

In memoriam: Gloria Werner, 80, university librarian emerita

UCLA Library Ben Alkaly | April 6, 2021 Gloria Werner, whose 40-year career at UCLA Library culminated with serving as university librarian from 1990 to 2002, died March 5 in Los Angeles. She was 80. “During her distinguished career, Gloria’s future-forward thinking produced innovations that UCLA and other libraries continue to build upon,” said Virginia Steel, Norman and Armena Powell University Librarian. “Hers is a tremendous loss to our academic library community here in California, nationally and internationally. She was a true leader who inspired those who worked with her. We will miss her.” Werner was born Dec. 12, 1940, in Seattle. She discovered a passion for the arts while attending Oberlin College, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in art history in 1961. She went on to earn her master of library science degree from the University of Washington in 1962, arriving at UCLA that same year to begin graduate training in medical librariansh
