[CALIBK12] UCLA library question

[Hilary Brover]

As a very proud Alum, married to a fellow Bruin, I would definitely encourage the AVID students to visit Powell Library.  It is one of the anchor building on the historical quad of the campus.  Powell is one of those old, venerable libraries with high ceiling, wood, and amber windows.  The interior has been used for many films like Major League and Ghostbusters.
 
I would also recommend the Franklin Murphy Outdoor Sculpture Gardens located between Dr. Ralph Bunche Hall and the Fine Arts Building,  some type of exhibition is always going on.  There is always Schoenberg Hall and the Library/Museum of Ethnomusicology. 
 
The students might enjoy a walk down Janns steps to Bruin Walk where various social and political groups set up informational booths.  Just a visit to the Bookstore in the Ackerman Student Union is an education in college life itself.
 
Good Luck,

If you're familiar with the UCLA campus, can you name some possible 
points of interest and relevance to middle school AVID students? 
There will be a few hours of unstructured time after a scheduled 
event. Which libraries might be good? Are there really eleven on 
campus? Any info you can post will be helpful. Thank you.
