One of the goals of the Dashew Center has always been to help bridge the gap between the domestic and international communities, both at UCLA and in the broader Los Angeles area. Whether you’re an incoming student or scholar, have just finished your first year on campus, or are a UCLA veteran, we realized that you might not know all of the amazing things that are in Los Angeles to take advantage of during the summer months.
That’s why I’m proud to introduce the new blog of the Dashew Center: the Dashew Summer Bucket List!
The goal of this blog is simple: to help you get to know the Los Angeles area a bit better. Over the course of the summer, our student and professional staff will share some of their favorite parts of Los Angeles - from letting you know about events that are happening on or around campus to all of the places and spaces we love to frequent.
Most of us weren’t born in Los Angeles, either, so we know what it’s like to have to learn how to navigate a new place. Hopefully, this blog will give you some insider tips and some locals favorites to explore, as well as a few things to put on your own #SummerBucketList! We’ll post regularly, so be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and (obviously) Tumblr to keep in touch.
