I’m Still Reeling From the Mass Shooting Scare

Bruin Bare Neccesities, WeekliesBy Manisha WanniappaFebruary 16, 2022Leave a comment

The events of last week remain fresh in my mind. I remember returning to my dorm after a long day of classes, ready to spend my Monday night catching up on all the homework I failed to do during the day. I remember sitting down at my desk and seeing my phone light up with…

Ring! Ring! Ring! As fast as I could, I raced my way across the soccer field to be the first in line for my fifth grade class before the teacher led us back into the dull, eraser-scented, fluorescently lit classroom. As I swayed from side to side, waiting for what seemed like forever in the…

In the 2000s, UCLA’s Hong Kong Student Society (HKSS) hosted night markets in Bruin Plaza, inviting a variety of vendors to sell traditional Hong Kong street food and merchandise. Among the products sold were curry fish balls, dim sum, boba, zodiac jades and jewelry. Although this no longer takes place on campus, we can continue…

The Bamboo Ceiling

Getting Down to The S-Pacifics, WeekliesBy Katherine LyBy Shune KawaotoBy Jodie ChenFebruary 9, 2022Leave a comment

The term “bamboo ceiling” refers to the barriers set to exclude Asian Americans from reaching positions of power in business and cultural enterprises. “Bamboo ceiling” is an extension of the term “glass ceiling” which was created and placed on women to prevent them from moving up the hierarchy of businesses.
