I would like to share a message directly with you about recent events on campus. I was attending a UC systemwide event this morning, so I was not able to join our All-Staff meeting. Learning about the violence last night and seeing our community's safety compromised has been truly heartbreaking.
Late last night, a group of instigators came to Royce Quad to forcefully attack the encampment that has been established there to advocate for Palestinian rights. Physical violence ensued, and our campus requested support from external law enforcement agencies to help end this appalling assault, quell the fighting and protect our community.
I would like to share the latest update on our IT initiatives through the IT Executive Dashboard, with highlights provided below.
This past Thursday, a group of demonstrators — both members of the UCLA community and others unaffiliated with our campus — established an unauthorized physical encampment on part of Royce Quad, joining those who have set up similar presences at universities around the country.
