Congratulations to the Class of 2026!
Full circle moment. π
This past Sunday at Afro-Grad, before we pinned our 2026 graduates, we paused for something special. Our keynote speaker, UCLA legend and six-time Olympic medalist Jackie Joyner-Kersee, never got to attend her own graduation. So we surprised her β pinning her first, to kick off the ceremony in her honor before passing that same moment on to every graduate behind her.
A legacy passed forward, one pin at a time. ππ

Due to circumstances beyond our control, UBAA hasn't hosted a UCLA Transfer Day event in over 3 years. The drought is over! We partnered with and their Transfer Coordinator, Brooklynn Ming, on the Transfer Day dinner and alumni panel. It was an amazing evening and thank you to our panelists for sharing their experiences as former transfer students!
