It’s a common story: An international student pays $20 to attend the Career Center’s JumpStart session on pre-health summer programs, hoping to learn about all the available initiatives offered at UCLA and around Los Angeles.

Before moving from the Hill to an off-campus apartment, I never imagined that food security would be an issue for me. However, I have become increasingly concerned that I can’t afford to spend $7 on a balanced meal and can’t eat fast food every day for lower costs.

Online courses are normally popular due to the flexibility they entail. However, courses provided through the University of California Cross-Campus Enrollment still have a long way to go in terms of attracting more students.

When I read that AP and IB units are no longer eligible enrollment units, I was surprised at how fast the policy is going to effectuate and worried if I could still enroll in the classes I planned for the winter quarter.

A small increase in sales tax might soon save commuter students a large amount of time coming to class.
A bill that Gov. Jerry Brown signed Wednesday will allow Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority officials to seek a sales tax increase in 2016 that could raise as much as $120 billion for local roads, freeways and mass transit.

Since summer, I have made phone calls, written emails and frequently commuted from my apartment to campus trying to enroll in Life Sciences 2: “Cells, Tissues, and Organs.” Signing up for a class shouldn’t be this difficult.

At UCLA, I always have no clue how to answer questions about my feminist inclinations.
My answer could be “Yes! I am a feminist!” because I believe women deserve the same rights as men, but at the same time “No” as I read Vogue and cry when watching a melodrama.

Undergraduate student government External Vice President Zach Helder wants to gamble away our student fees with the worst hand at the table.
Last week, Helder proposed a motion to terminate UCLA’s long-term membership in the United States Student Association, a national student-led organization that aims to help students to address issues at the local, state and federal levels.

Having been able to afford three meals a day, I never imagined myself to be food insecure. However, not starving is not equivalent to being food secure.

If the University of California held its national summit on undocumented students last week to improve its public image, the students in attendance made sure that effort did not go unchallenged.
