Announcements

  • Join the Bay Area Bruins or upgrade to life membership

    The Bay Area Bruins is a regional chapter of the Association, meaning that all association members that reside within our region are automatically members of the chapter. This differs from a regional club, in which the membership dues are collected separately. Our region consists of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Monterey, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and Sonoma counties.

    All members automatically receive a copy of the UCLA Magazine (sent quarterly) and the monthly Connect@UCLA e-mail newsletter from the Association.
