A new diversity requirement proposal has been in the works over the past year at UCLA.
Though three other proposals have failed to go into effect at the university since 1987, students and faculty have organized again to push for the initiative by holding town halls, forming committees and drafting language on the new requirement.
At the end of May, the Faculty Executive Committee voted unanimously to approve a proposal for the new requirement, which would have students in the College take one course that is a minimum of four units. But the proposal still has to gain the approval of several other campus bodies before going into effect.
To track the proposal’s origins and future steps, the Daily Bruin has compiled a timeline of events to illustrate its progress.
