Dear Bruin Community:

This past fall the Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) launched its UCLA EDI Student Leadership Award for the second year. At UCLA, EDI is everyone’s responsibility, and the objective of the UCLA EDI Student Leadership Award is to recognize the contributions of individual students who have exhibited exceptional leadership in work that aligns with and advances the EDI Office’s Mission and priorities.

After careful consideration, it is my pleasure to announce the selection of seven UCLA students (four graduate/professional and three undergraduate) as recipients of the 2023–2024 EDI Student Leadership Award. The following students have excelled in making significant and positive contributions to the advancement of EDI at UCLA and were selected based on their leadership, innovation and engagement:

  • Ashley Dao
  • Cameron Burris-Greene
  • Emil Dominguez
  • Hernando Sevilla-Garcia
  • Live Maluia
  • Satema Lopez
  • Sonya Brooks

For more information on the recipients, visit the UCLA EDI Student Leadership Award web page.

Please join me in congratulating the recipients of the 2023–2024 UCLA EDI Student Leadership Award. The Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion thanks you for you work within the UCLA community and beyond.

Sincerely,

Mitchell Chang
Interim Vice Provost for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion
