Pros

beautiful campus, conveniently located, a relatively diverse demographic and excellent networking opportunities if one is both charismatic, ambitious and persistent. daily amusement as well.

Cons

i don't even no where to start! First, you must know that ucla is only conducive to minimal growth if you do not know the right people and have an extroverted enough personality to smile or joke your way into an array of professional opportunities. The second and only thing you need to know is that UCLA is more blue than it is gold even when the sun is shining---and it shines often.

Pros

Great health insurance - I'm told it's really quite fire (no lie) Great location - love Westwood (sandwiched by Brentwood, Bel Air, and Beverly Hills) Union is tremendously supportive

Cons

Campus dining options are kinda weak - breaks my heart to eat the same thing every day

Pros

Working with students is satisfying and fulfilling. It also helps yourself retain information you have learned from past courses.

Cons

The Peer Learning Unit is poorly managed, and it is difficult to communicate with your supervisors.
