Long Story Short – August 19, 2013
This week Christyana Cabal and Ryan Nelson host Long Story Short. Don’t judge a book by its cover; Long Story Short interviews former UC Santa Cruz banana slug, Virginia Steel about her first month as UCLA’s university librarian. She talks about the Bruin community, current projects such as extending hours at YRL, and shares with us the joys and perks of being a librarian. Afterwards, Opinion columnist Alexandra Tashman joins the studio to discuss the legislation recently passed allowing K-12 students to join sex-segretated programs and activities based on their gender identity. She reviews how that policy has already been implemented on the UCLA campus, and how it is progressing forward.
Ryan Nelson was the Opinion editor from 2015-16 and a member of the Bruin Editorial Board from 2013-16. He was an opinion columnist from 2012-14 and assistant opinion editor in 2015. Alongside other Bruin reporters, Nelson covered undocumented students for the Bridget O'Brien Scholarship Foundation. He also writes about labor issues, healthcare and the environment.
